Legally no, but it's certainly not going to be any easier than pre pandemic, especially for the first few when you have no idea of numbers and someone needs to stump up deposits. I'm assuming we will get league chess back, but not any congresses in 2021. Would love to be wrong though.
Based on comments here, I think you are right Adam. Currently seems you need to leave Scotland for OTB chess. As they say, the pandemic has been an accelerator of many trends things that were already happening anyway, I hope this is an exception to that rule.
