OTB Under 1650 Mini Standardplay Chess Tournament

2nd & 3rd July, 2021, Sheffield

 

This was arguably the first over-the-board standard-rate congress in Yorkshire since lockdown stopped OTB chess.  It was held at Spa View Community Church, Spa View Road, Birley Spa, Sheffield, S12 4HD, and was organised by Jonathan Arnott.  The time limit was all moves in a game in 45 minutes, with a 15-second increment per move from move 1.

 

The ratings shown in the chart below are the July ones.  Entries will, of course, have been accepted on the basis of the June list.

 

Covid mitigation measures were in place.  Phill Beckett reported, “The venue would have accommodated over 100 under normal conditions, but was limited to about 40 on this occasion.  Masks were compulsory except for a couple of exempt people.  Evidence of a negative test was required.  As arbiter I came clutching all of the above plus my double jab card.  Players knew the situation and accepted it.”

 

George Swanson of Stannington was the winner, on 5 out of 5, with three players sharing 3th to 5th places, Stephen K Lee, Harry J Taylor and Jamie Wright.
