Clearinghouse Policy Statement:

The goal of the tournament clearinghouse is to prevent two adult tournaments from occurring on the same date in the same area. The responsibility for preventing conflicts rests with the TD. The TD should consult the clearinghouse before sending in an advertisement to Chess Life and before paying for a site. The TD should notify the clearinghouse by e-mail as soon as possible after the tournament date has been decided.  If two tournaments nevertheless fall on the same day they will be listed in the order received.
