2012 Programme

As the heading suggests, this is the intended programme for 2012, although individual Lightnings and/or Grim Reapers may be replaced with other similar one-night events. All club tournaments are free to play in, but all participants need to be members of the club. There will also be open junior tournaments held during school holidays.

For prospective members, the best night to attend the Club for the first time are the Social Chess evenings, Lightnings, Grim Reapers or the Gambit Tournament. Unrated tournaments such as these are played purely for fun, and are an excellent introduction to the club.
