March Tournament

Saturday March 14 will be the second Silver Rooks Chess Tournament. 10 AM at the Silver Library, 515 W College.

$10 entry fee, $30 prize per quad.

We have it advertised as Quads, but if we do not have an even multiple of four, we will revert to the Swiss System, prizes based on number of entries; G/30, d3 time controls.

Please email or call me if you intend to play. If you don't pre-register, please arrive promptly at 10:00 so we can begin games at 10:20.

USCF membership is required to play in the rated tournaments, but nonmembers are welcome to come in for some games.

Players are asked to bring their own sets and clocks, but we do have a few extra.

February Results


Four people showed up to play at the February event. So it was like a round robin, with each player playing each other once. One player chose not to get a membership and rating. Each rated player won one and lost one, so it was a three way tie for first!

Jim Huse: 1 point
Sean DeMarco: 1 point
Rick Lass: 1 point

Looking forward to seeing you in March!
