On Saturday 15 September there will be afternoon of fast-paced, light-hearted chess for secondary school players all standards. This will be held at Whitchurch Rugby club, the home of North Cardiff chess club, from 2-5 p.m. (the full address is Whitchurch Rugby Sports & Social Club, Samuels Crescent, Velindre Road, Cardiff, CF14 2TH).
Attendance is free. However, to keep on good terms with the owners of the club, everyone must use the bar during the interval mid-way through the afternoon!
During this afternoon we shall have a “doubles chess” competition, and some puzzles in the interval. (If you don’t know what “doubles” is, it is detailed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bughouse_chess. We shall to the rules that pawns can’t be promoted, and you can put a piece on to check, but not checkmate).
Those that wish to attend should send an e-mail to Richard Stevenson, who can be contacted at: welshsecondarychess@gmail.com
