Prizes
The following prizes will be awarded: 1st place – £400, 2nd place – £200, 3rd place – £100. There will be grading prizes of £50 each for players graded under 160 and 120. There will be a £50 prize for the leading junior player. These prizes may be increased in value, or additional grading prizes may be awarded, if there are sufficient entries. Prize money will be transferred after the event, and not on the day. The title of British Blitz Champion will be awarded. In the event of a tie, the Champion will be the player with the highest TPR. See the technical regulations for more information.
This was a copy and paste from the printed entry form. Out of necessity: There were space constraints on the printed entry form, for obvious reasons. If players entered online, then they could simply click the link and read them. I think it was clear enough.
I've just checked the e2e4 website, and their regulations on rating prizes (as I probably could have more accurately called them) are in the terms and conditions, and not the entry form.
