Please note that the entrant’s name and grading code will be published on our website. If you wish your
name to be kept out of the published list please tick the relevant box on the entry form.
How to obtain the lower entry fee shown on page 7
For the Under 8, Under 10, Under 12 and Under 14 finals you need to be an ECF member at Silver level or
above. Silver membership is free for juniors who have not previously been ECF members and £15 for those
renewing online. For full details see the ECF website, and go to Membership/Joining the ECF.
