A Busy Persons Congress is designed to give you the excitement of a congress in just half a day. It is particularly designed for players who can only spend half a day at their favorite game. It is also the ideal first event for both junior and adult players. The whole of the administration is streamlined to give a fast exciting event.
Everyone plays in the same section. Rounds 1-6 are played continuously. As soon as you finish your game you will be re-paired. We hope you enjoy it. It is designed to be fast, furious, and above all fun.

Part of the Bolton Easter Congress, so enthusiastic players can play all weekend if they wish
