I Played in the latter one of these last year, its a really strong event, so don't be fooled by it being at a school. If your looking for a good solid rapidplay with good games , thats the standout tournament of the 5.

Kind regards

The one event where I could actually walk to the venue (Dudley), and I can't play because I've got a County match!
