ULSTER CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP 2012

Europa Hotel

The 2012 Ulster Chess Championships will take place from Saturday 25th August to Monday 27th August at the Europa Hotel Belfast city center.

COMPETITORS BE WARNED.... All moves must be recorded even in the last 5 minutes. This is troublesome if you are not used to it. This rule lost me 2 games in a recent tournament as it was the first time I had come across it!

Full details can be found at the Ulster Chess Union site.

"ODD BALL MEN"

Hot news for Ulster Chess players though it is a bit TOP SECRET.  For details get in touch with Damien Cunningham before he gets in touch with you!

2 Tim 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
