Next Rapid Tournament – March 2025

Our next tournament will be 24th March 2025.

This will be Rapid, so less frantic than the previous blitz one… you’ll get 10 minutes on the clock plus an increment of 5 second for every move you make – so if you make 30 moves, that’s an extra 2.5 minutes on the clock. There is time to think, but not much!


As the games will take longer, there will be fewer of them. Instead of all-play-all, it will be a Swiss style tournament. The way this works is that we keep track of everyone’s scores and in each round you will be playing someone who you have not played before and has a score similar to yours. So if there are four players who win in round 1 and in round 2, they are going to get drawn against each other. This system helps make the games more balanced, as you will be playing someone who has had similar results to you.

No prizes, just kudos.
