Over the board chess is returning

Post by Adam Raoof » Tue Jun 29, 2021 8:11 am

I am happy to say that I sucessfully navigated two modestly proportioned (one 4 player, one 6 player) and fully covid compliant over the board events in Hendon this week, my first OTB tournaments since March 2020. All the players enjoyed the novelty of chess in three dimensions but reported experiencing significant amounts of rust!

Check here - https://tornelo.com/chess/orgs/chess-england - for the results and for pairings of upcoming tournaments.
