Hi,
Just wondering if for the 1000-1199 section would be possible to register a (scholastic) player with a February USCF rating in the lower 800′s?

Ruben,
Generally, we are very strict about our rating requirements so as to maintain the best possible competitive environment for our players; if you’d like to make a personal request – please email Daniel Rensch at Danny@AmericanChess.net
Thank you…
