Ulster Rapidplay and City of Belfast Championships

Both the Ulster Rapidplay and the City of Belfast Championships will take place in the month of April

The City of Belfast Championships are being held on the 11-12th April in the Pavillion Sports Facility at Stormont Estate. It is a long play tournament that will be split into two sections - the Nemetzov Cup (over 1600) and the Henderson Cup (under 1600). Further details can be found in the events section

The Ulster Rapidplay Championships are being held on the 25th April in Ballynafeigh Community Centre. There will be 6 rounds with 25 minutes on the clock and no increment. Further details can be found here.

There are only 3 weekend tournaments left this season and it would be great to see the current trend of increasing numbers continue at these final events. I look forward to seeing you all there!
