Pairings and results

Welcome to the 5th Pandanet Go European Team Championship. We have a new record number of 34 countries participating and it will be an interesting and busy season.

You can find the schedule and the pairing behind each league table, minor adjustments to the player information pending.

The first round of the League B is taking place in a week, 9th September on Pandanet-IGS. See you there!

We already enter the 5th Pandanet Go European Team Championship season 2014-2015. The format will be the same: League games played on the Pandanet IGS and the finals in the EGC 2015 in Liberec, Czechia. There will be 34 countries participating, a new record!

We will have 10 teams in League A: Russia, Czechia, France, Ukraine, Romania, Finland, Sweden, Serbia, Netherlands and Poland.

League B will have 12 teams (last year’s runner-ups were lucky this time): Hungary, Israel, Germany, Slovakia, Austria, Denmark, Belgium, Norway, Turkey, Italy, Slovenia and Switzerland.

League C will have 12 teams: Spain, Ireland, United Kingdom, Croatia, Bulgaria, Portugal, Cyprus, Kazakhstan, Iceland, Greece, Lithuania and South Africa. Welcome Lithuania and South Africa!

We are now waiting for the teams to register by September 1st.

The schedule and the pairings for the season will be sent out September 1st and the first round (probably League B) will commence on Tuesday, September 9th.

The 4th Pandanet Go European Team Championship leagues have finished and the last changes in the league places will be fought in the relegation games on Tuesday 3rd June.

Ukraine, Czechia, Russia and France earned their places in the finals. Congratulations and good luck in the European Go Congress in Romania.

The Netherlands is coming back to the league A, the 5th season starting autumn 2014. Hungary and Poland will resolve the last league A place in a five-board match this Tuesday. Israel unluckily dropped from the league A to the league B.

Turkey took a promotion to the league B with an impressive five point gap to the next in the league C. Italy and Switzerland still need to play for the league B place. Slovenia will patiently collect some speed from the league C next season.

Pandanet Go European Team Championship 4th edition, last rounds to be served:

The league A top four teams will qualify for the live finals at the 58th European Go Congress in Sibiu, Romania. Ukraine, Czechia, Russia and France might (just might) have already settled the issue. The bottom half 5 teams is another story, no team is theoretically safe to remain in the league.

The league B and the top two places are settled as well, but Poland and the Netherlands will fight over the direct league A qualification. In the lower half Belgium is safe, but Denmark, Italy, Slovenia and Norway need to play out for the place in the league.

The league C completes the honourable 11 rounds season 27th May. Turkey already has a place in the next league B but Switzerland, Spain and the UK need to rely on actual game results.

All games on Tuesdays, allowing some exceptions (check the pairings for detailed info). See the results and pairings in
