Re: draft list i guess is now totally pointless??
Draft lists are by their very nature designed to have a limited lifespan: they're there to help you identify problems before you publish the full list.
This draft list was presumably helpful to anyone running an ECF-graded event between the publications of the draft and full lists.

Re: draft list i guess is now totally pointless??
The draft list was also of relevance to Counties having to make entries to the grading limit divisions of the County Championship, of which there are five following the approval by the ECF Council in April of the SCCU proposal for an extra division. I carried out an extensive analysis, based on the draft list, for the benefit of the Essex captains. Although on the definitive list a significant number of Essex players had grades one point different from the draft list, and a much smaller number of players had grades more than one point different, there was only one player whose eligibility for a particular division had changed. The draft list was therefore useful to Essex during its limited life span.

I am getting a sense of deja vu on this topic, having just posted a reply on a different thread!

I do (sometimes...) have a life and can find other things to do rather than merge topics
