I suggest that you email Shohreh Bayat and Nigel Towers directly.Greg Breed wrote: ↑Sun Feb 06, 2022 2:36 pmSome 3 months since an update to the British Chess Championships calendar. Those of us looking to enter the graded sections are left in limbo unable to know what week we are in. If they don't get their act together sharpish there won't be any graded sections players as there will be nowhere viable to stay! Get a move on whoever is in charge that. That's where the bulk of the entry fees come from!
