April/May Blitz Tournament
In the Bridge Club next Thursday, 3 May:
Our monthly blitz event has been somewhat delayed, because of our concentration on team matches.
The usual rules apply: a six round Swiss, with 10 minutes each per player per game. It starts at 8 (prompt); late-comers can be admitted into round 2 (or 3), though you will diminish your chance of winning a prize – and, of course, miss out on playing some chess.
This will be our last blitz tournament until the Autumn – so take the opportunity to play some fast and friendly chess!
