Over the Board Junior Tournament

It is not just CJCC that is returning to over the board chess - some smaller tournaments are also popping up.

On Saturday 4th September, there is one hosted by the Essex Chess Association in Wanstead that I am helping to organise.

It should be a pleasant and social afternoon's chess.
