To win just once would be enough
For those who've lost in life and love
For those who've lost their guile and nerve
Their innocence, their drive and verve
For those who feel they've been mistreated
Discriminated, robbed or cheated
To claim one victory inspired
To win just once is their desire

To win just once against the odds
And once be smiled on by the Gods
To race with speed along the track
Break the tape and not look back
To never have considered losing
As if to win is by your choosing
Bare your soul for all to find
An honest heart and an open mind

To win just once
That would be enough
So come all ye fulltime smalltown heroes
Cast away your inbred fears of
Standing out from all the rest
The cynics and the pessimists
The self-indulgent almost rich
The blatant hurlers on the ditch
Time is passing so come on
And face the ball, the game is on

To win just once...
That would be enough

TEAM PHILOSOPHY: Friendly, relaxed and enjoyable chess. We will win some, and we will lose some. We will climb the ladder, and we will descend the ladder. We will play every team on GK. But we shall have fun with our chess, for "To Win Just Once"... that would be enough...

TEAM MEMBERS to be willing to play between 4 to 12 team games. Please set your preference for desired max number of games in your "Team play settings", on the "TEAMS" page on the main menu, allowing for the system to sometimes permit one more max game, i.e., as 2 games with each new match. Generally, team matches will be constantly paired up to your max preference. If you find your team game load is becoming too much, simply REDUCE your max preference for a while.

TEAM MEMBERS to tick the box for "notify me when a new message is posted in the team forum" so as to be aware of team messages.

Please, NO TIME-OUTS, as this is discourteous to other team members. It also makes it difficult to pair you for matches. Make use of the POSTPONE/vacation setting for times when you are likely to be unavailable.

RECRUITMENT: Team players are welcome to join us.
