TRANSCRIPT
Northwest Scholastic Rating System
2019 - 2020: The Top Ten in Each Grade in WA I am doing this the same as last the few years. In the past, to reach anywhere on these pages, players had to be a Washington
resident and play a minimum of 15 NWSRS rated games last season, without exception. However, several years ago I decided to honor
those players who are highly rated, but for whatever reason, did not play the minimum of 15 games in the system. I am following that
practice again this year. I still show the Top 10 as the players who have met the requirement, but show other Washington players who
had the rating to qualify, but not the 15 games. However, I am no longer including players on the list who have less than 15 lifetime
games in the NWSRS, even if their USCF rating would otherwise qualify them for the list. (Total Games) = career games. (Games
Year) = games played in 2018-2019 season. (Ratings for this list were closed September 2, 2019.)
Congratulations to the fine young players who made this list! We honor you. And congratulations to the many others who
missed the list narrowly, and the many, many others who competed last year in this great game we all enjoy!
THIS IS A FULLY RESET LISTING FOR 2018-2019 done in preparation for the 2019-2020 season. ALL PLAYERS ARE
LISTED WITH THEIR NEW 2019-2020 GRADES. There may be some kindergartners who started competitive chess as pre-schoolers
whose grades need to be reset back to kindergarten. Please communicate with Kirk Winges concerning any issues with grade coding
([email protected]). Also provide any school changes, grade changes or updated/new USCF information to Kirk.

Note: Yellow indicates less than 15 games this year and player does not qualify for Top 10 List *Note: all students coded as kindergarten last year were automatically advanced to first grade by the rating system. Accordingly, this first grade list may include some students that will ultimately be re-coded to kindergarten
because they were actually pre-kindergarten last year. The WSRS makes no distinction between kindergarten and pre-kindergarten students.

NWSRS RATING SYSTEM STATS AND ACTIVITY
This September the Northwest Scholastic Rating System was reset as follows: (1) Graduated seniors were advanced to “adult” status. (2)
All grades were advanced one level. (3) The "this year" games field was emptied. All USCF ratings were updated on September 2, 2019.
For the last several years I tried something different and did not remove any “inactive” players. My reason was that we had several
instances in earlier years with players coming back after being inactive and removed and it has caused problems with duplicate IDs. Last
year, the ID system was expanded to allow for an additional alpha-numeric character. This should allow the system to grow without the
need to remove any inactive players for many years. However, to keep the files from expanding too much, I have now added the additional
field “active” or “archived” and only include active players in the distributed rating list. All players, including archived players still appear
in the excel version of the ratings database.
We start the new season with 36,887 rated scholastic and adult players, 7,594 in grades K-6, 14,531 in grades 7-12 and 14,762 adults.
This past year we rated 569 events and approximately 47,700 games. This reflects a slight increase in the activity from last year when we
rated 504 events and approximately 47,000 games.
