London Junior Chess Championship - Cancelled

Post by Paul McKeown » Tue Dec 14, 2021 7:11 pm

Very sadly, this year's LJCC has been cancelled, although the website has not yet been updated to reflect this.

An email was sent to parents and to competitors in the adult events, reading:
*LJCC OVER-THE-BOARD EVENTS CANCELLED*

After a long and difficult meeting, we have decided to cancel all our over-the-board events this year.

Given the rapid spread of the Omicron variant, we are unable to run an event that is both safe and up to the standard you deserve.

We are extremely disappointed, and we apologise to all of you who were looking forward to the event and who have planned around it.

You will receive a full refund via Eventbrite.

For the Junior Events, we are offering an online alternative on the same days as the over the board finals. Details will follow tonight.

Best wishes,
The LJCC Team
