Bartholomew Ashworth

A chess club's rating list tells a story about who is climbing and who has stalled, yet a plain spreadsheet reduces it to a dull sorted column. Bartholomew Ashworth brings that story back by placing the three highest-rated players on a real podium of ranked tiles, with every other member lined up in a clean ranked list underneath, so one look at the screen shows where everyone stands.

Adding a player needs only a name and a rating. Tap any entry to open that player's own detail view, where you can leave a note about recent results, an upcoming match or a club title. Whenever a rating changes, the list re-sorts and the podium rebuilds itself automatically, so entering scores after a club night reshuffles the standings with no manual reordering. Six sample players, ranging from a rising 1080 to a strong 1920, are preloaded so the podium and list make sense from the first launch, and you can swap them for your real roster whenever you like.

The app deliberately leaves out match history, openings and time-control tracking. It is a standings board rather than a chess engine companion, built to answer one question at a glance: who is leading the club this month, and by how much.
