The Team Captains

The rights and duties of the team captains are as follows:


At least 30 minutes before the commencement of a round, the team captain must deliver to the
tournament director or to the person delegated by the latter for this purpose, a written list in a
sealed envelope giving the players of his team who will participate in the match of the said round.
If such a list has not been submitted within the time prescribed, the team can only be represented
by its players numbered 1 to 3.
The composition of a team, once submitted, can only be modified in the case of circumstances beyond
its control in which case an explanation with reasons must be furnished. It will be for the chief
referee to accept or reject any request for a change in the composition of a team by reason of
circumstances beyond its control.
The captain is authorized, in his capacity as captain, to remain in the space reserved for the
players, but it will be his duty to see that those of the team's players who have finished their
games do not remain in the space referred to above.
At the end of play, the captain shall be responsible for reporting the result to the tournament
direction as well as providing the latter with score sheets on which all terminated games are
legibly recorded.
The captain must abstain from any intervention during play. He is, however, entitled to advise the
players of his team to make or accept an offer of a draw or to resign a game, on condition that he
does not make any comments concerning the actual situation on the chess board and confines himself
to giving only brief information which can in no way be interpreted as an opinion expressed on the
course of the game. Any communication between the captain and the players must be made under the
control of the steward.
The captain is authorized to nominate a substitute but is required to do this in writing to the
tournament direction.
Only the captain is authorized to present protests or any claims on the part of the players.
Team Captions should make sure all your team players are sitting on one side.
