Edinburgh Blitz tomorrow night

[David Clayton]

Thanks for a good night of chess. First time I gave your Blitz events a try. Splendid venue, 40 approx. was a good turn out? Lots of kids there, always good to see. Very efficiently organised too, ran to schedule, was finished by 9.30.... when is the next Edinburgh one?

Thanks Jonathan. We enjoyed running it too, although yesterday's event was a little fraught with various separate issues. We managed to get through them, and as you say, we did finish on time, which is what we aim for.

We have an interesting summer of Blitz Chess on the agenda.

On the 17th June, we are organising the Scottish Junior Blitz Championships, an under 11 event in the morning and a FIDE 11-18 event in the afternoon. Alongside these tournaments we will be running two FIDE blitz events, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. All are 9 rounds, so you can play 18 FIDE blitz games on one day!

Our summer series of Friday Evening FIDE Blitz will see us return to Glasgow and Edinburgh again. Dates yet to be arranged.
