Hello Members.

It has been some time since we have all been able to play over the board chess, both at the club and in the league.

This situation will I believe continue for some time as the Coronavirus is not going away soon.

For those members who would like to start playing chess again against other club members or possibly other Leamington League Clubs, I have created an On-line Stratford upon Avon Chess Club page on Chess.com. This is a free chess hosting web site which allows you to play chess with players both locally and around the world.

If you are interested in playing on-line chess against other club members or in a team event against other clubs, please sign up using the following link.

https://www.chess.com/club/stratford-upon-avon-chess-club/join/870256

You will need a Chess.com account, but this is free unless you want advanced features, which are not required to play.

If there are enough members signing up I will then try to organise some friendly competitions both within our club and against other Leamington League Clubs.

If you are missing chess this is your chance to start playing again, against people you know.

All the best.

Richard Buxton.
