Who is this event for? We're aiming this (roughly) at those of ECF 1600-2000 rating strength. That said, it's up to you: if you're slightly above or below that range, or if you don't have a rating, or think you're playing better/worse than your rating, that's totally up to you.

Adults or juniors? Either.

Time: Roughly 10.30am to 5pm, TBC.

Venue: Southern Light Community Church, Tannery Street, Woodhouse, S13 7LA.

Cost: £25

b) Play some games of chess (probably 3 x 15 10 games)

c) Have some full-group coaching with Andrew Ledger IM.
