New Season 2014/2015

Hope everyone had a good Summer Holiday!

I am pleased to say the New Season is almost upon us and next week Tuesday 26th August I will start collecting membership fees for the New Season.

Could all members please try and attend - even if just to pay the membership fees - as we have to pay the ECF their membership fees very soon and any members not registered are unable to play in the league. I am pleased to say that the membership fee will remain the same as last year... £32.00 for Adults and £25.00 for U18's.

This membership fee includes your Bronze membership to the ECF. Hire of the room. Fees to Coventry League and finally, the general running of Coventry Chess Club!

2015 British Chess Championships will be at University of Warwick

The 2015 British Chess Championships will take place at the University of Warwick from 25 July to 8 August.

Apart from the main championship there are many competitions to suit all tastes including ones of varying length and catering for various grading bands. (Information on who can play is shown here).

So, if you might want to play or watch then don't book your holiday in that period.

The website for more information is http://britishchesschampionships.co.uk/ (currently showing mostly information about the 2014 event - this will give you an idea of what you could be in for).
