Why this event?
We like chess. We like pancakes. It's Pancake Day.
Venue:
Southern Light Community Church, Tannery Street, Woodhouse, Sheffield, S13
7LA.
Entry
fee: £10 (parents of juniors can pay £5 for pancakes
without chess)
ECF
membership: Don't worry about it. If everyone who enters is an
ECF member, we'll ECF-rate it. If not, we won't because we don't want
to be paying a £9 per person pay-to-play fee for a casual event. We'll let
you know before the first round.
Time
limit: All moves in 10 minutes plus a 5-second increment from
move 1. Players do not need to record their games.
