  Glorney Twitch and Twitter
Posted by: hamish olson - 24-07-2017, 01:10 PM - Forum: Junior Chess Chat - No Replies

twitch.tv/theyellowdragoon is the Irish commentary on the Glorney, with guest commentary from some of the Scots (James Hartman and Chelsea Liang so far, both with quick wins!). Well worth a watch.

scotglorney17 is the Scottish twitter feed as well, you have to request permission to follow and it will only be for people known to the team as it contains photographs of juniors.

  Looking for chess clubs to take part in a series of blogs
Posted by: Jon Fisher - 06-07-2017, 11:35 AM - Forum: General Chess Chat - Replies (1)

Hello!

Over at the ChessJournal blog I'm running a series of blogs called "Club Profiles". These are a series of interviews with members of chess clubs to talk about the history and diversity of their clubs and what makes them special. Our most recent one was with Phones CC in Glasgow: 

https://thechessjournalblog.wordpress.co...lasgow-uk/

I'm looking for any other chess clubs who would like to volunteer to take part. The interviews are done via email and don't take too long. The initiative is really well received at the moment!

If you would like to volunteer your chess club please email jon@chessjournalapp.com

Thanks

Jon
