TO BE HELD ON

MONDAY 13 APRIL 2020

CLOCKS START 2:00 p.m.

7 Round Swiss of 10 minutes per game plus 5 seconds per move.

Results will be submitted for English Chess Federation rapidplay grading.

 

 

ENTRIES ONLY FROM PLAYERS who will be both Hastings & St Leonards club members, and also ECF members, in 2019/20.

(If the event was open more widely it would mean the Club paying fees to the E.C.F. when the results were graded).

 

Many modest (sometimes silly) prizes to be won by players at all levels.

Prize giving is expected to be finished by 6:30 p.m.

 

Entrance numbers strictly limited to 20 absolute tops

and people will be turned away after that number is reached,

so advance booking is strongly recommended.
