Also..
As this year's Championships are so close to Scotland (55 miles? - someone correct me) you must all come to play in something.
The weekend congress will be a belter (Open section FIDE rated), both Rapidplays FIDE rated and both have an under 1800 section! FIDE rated morning and afternoon 5 round open events.
All the age groups need potential British Champions! The Under 16 event is FIDE rated.
The social events calendar will be awesome this year. Sandcastle competition on a chess theme, Quiz, Bus tours of the area, Blitz events for both adults and juniors, murder mystery evening, Ceilidh!
I am also hoping to put on a Talent Show ("British Chess has Talent") =o
Free junior coaching every day by top International Master & coach Vaidyanathan Ravikumar and fun coach Nick Nixon! :U
IM Ravi will be also joining the Commentary team with IM Andrew Martin to go over the day's play in the Championship.
