The Venue is Coventry Rugby Club Butts Park Arena.

Saturday 5th March and Sunday 6th March.

There are going to be 4 sections Open, Under 170, Under 145, and under 120 so there is plenty of sections for all grades.

If you are only going to play in one Tournament in 2016, then support your local Team/Club and enter this tournament - it promises to be a really exciting tournament with lots of prizes.

There are going to be five rounds spread over two days with the opportunity to have a bye in one round.

I have just heard from Bava and he took part in the British Chess Championships U150 at the weekend.

Bava had a fantastic result coming 2nd overall with 3.5 points.

He was unbeaten winning 2 games and drawing three games. This is a great result as he has finished above a number of higher graded players. I have included a link below to the full results from the British Chess Championships. Congratulations to Bava !

If anyone else has any results they would like me to publish from the British Chess Championships, please drop me an email. Simon
