Club Activities
The Chess Club organises the following activities:
Every Monday and Thursday there are lunchtime meetings for informal or formal games. These could be 5-min games, or anything you want to play. These take place in the B80 Coffee Lounge from 12:00pm - 1:00pm. We normally have a 5-min League throughout the season, and this year we are hoping to start a Quickplay (30-min) competition.
Club Championship
Every session, we hold a club championship where you get the chance to play other members of the club under tournament time controls (1.5 hours per player). The matches are organised between individual players, and the tournament is normally run as a 5-round Swiss from October to April.
Suffolk League
This is your chance to play in the Suffolk League for the club (again under tournament time controls). This involves playing evening matches during the week either here on-site or in various parts of Suffolk.
U125 Competition
This year we will be entering a team in the Suffolk U125 competition. This will involve playing other clubs in Suffolk for evening matches, but all players will be U125.
Post Match Analysis
These sessions take place in the B80 Coffee Lounge normally a few days after one of the Suffolk League matches, where players get a chance to either go over their games or observe one of the other games. Anyone is welcome to sit on these. |
