Our Online Leagues

Our League Tournaments were designed to be played mainly over the Internet. The purpose is to encourage interaction between players in different areas of the country and to encourage online play amongst members of our Association.

In order to widen the player base for the Team League and therefore increase the number of teams participating we also allowed a limited number of non-Association players to enter this league.

There was an entry fee to these leagues and the winner of Division 1 of the Team League each season held the GoGoD Shield. Originally each member of the winning Division 1 team received a GoGoD disk as part of their prize. The entry fees go into a prize fund, with prizes being awarded to the winners of each division.

The original League format ran from 2009 until 2019 for ten seasons (but with season 8 and 9 merged). The individual Leagues only lasted three seasons (2009-2011).

However the Individual League, with several divisions, was restarted in summer 2023 (won by Tom Coulthard).
The leagues require participants to play an average of one game every two weeks on OGS, with time settings of 30 mins+10s/move and appropriate handicap, as an EGD class D rated event. Quite a large number of players take part with a wide range of ranks from 22k to 3d so players are likely to get well-matched games. For details of how to join, send an email to leagues@britgo.org.
