Is there an entry list online do you know? Is the event likely to reach max entries soon or is there quite a big capacity? Thanks

Is the event likely to reach max entries soon or is there quite a big capacity?

Last year it had over 200, although it did seem a bit cramped in places.

There will, at some point, be a list on Steve's website when I have chance - hopefully this weekend. Capacity has been increased as we now use classrooms and the hall, which we will continue to do this year.

I did think about coming over to Doncaster. However, it clashes with the Leyland Rapidplay, which is also on Sunday 26th February.

[Peter Ackley]

Entries now at 137 with less than two weeks to go.

Updated entry list shortly due to go up on MannChess (see post 1 for link).

[Peter Ackley]

Entries now at 180 with three days to go. Still space for a few more!

Updated entry list shortly due to go up on MannChess (see post 1 for link).

Please remember we use:
-the January original rating for section eligibility
-the February revised (at weekend prior to congress) as tournament rating.
(before anyone queries the over-graded players).
