Hi Chess Players,

Here is the current entry list for the Ulster Rapidplay Chess Championships in Newry on Saturday 1 February. Both sections will be FIDE-rated. The event is open to players from all across Ireland i.e. Irish Chess Union members may compete without being UCU members. £5 for children, teenagers and students. £10 for adults.
Check-in from 10:30am to 10:45am. Players to be seated at 10:55am. Round 1 begins at 11am. Prize-giving is 5:20pm to 5:30pm.
Drop me an email or text if you’d like to be included. We have players of all abilities coming along and we always welcome newcomers.
It takes 55 minutes to get to Newry on the Enterprise train from Lanyon Place (formerly known as Belfast Central). I can also try to get lifts sorted for folks travelling from Belfast so we can have 3 or 4 travelling in each car.
Best wishes,
Brendan Jamison
Ulster Chess Union Tournament Director & League Controller
