25/11/2023 One-Day Sheffield Chess Centre Rapidplay Saturday 16th December 2023 Open, U1750 & U1300 Sections
After a slight change of plan as regards dates, a one-day rapidplay event at the Sheffield Chess Centre, with three sections, has been arranged for Saturday the 16th of December 2023. The original plan had featured two sections on a Saturday and another two on the day after, but that proved not to be possible.
Each section is to be run as a 6-Round Swiss, with 20 minutes per game + 5-second increment.
A .pdf flyer-cum-entry form can be downloaded here, and you can enter on line at jotform.com/233274895946372. The maximum capacity is 64 players. Entries will be on a first come, first served basis.
The entry fee £20 (non-ECF members £29). (Paid-up Sheffield Chess Centre members may deduct £5 from their entry fee.)
Prizes in each section: 1st prize: £120 2nd prize: £60 3rd prize: £35 & rating prizes TBA
• The organisers may exercise their right to reduce the prize fund in the event of under 35 entries. • ECF rapidplay ratings from December 2023 will be used (full Standardplay will be preferred to no/provisional Rapid rating) to confirm sections. • Players can enter any section for which they are eligible. • Some refreshments will be available for purchase on the day. • Free parking is available on street. • In all matters the organisers’ decision is final.
