I apologise for causing offence. I have edited my post.Tim Harding wrote: ↑Mon Aug 30, 2021 8:15 pmI don't think that my posting, which was intended to be helpful (especially as nobody on this Forum had previously pointed out that the OTB championships are going ahead) deserved the rude put-down which Mr Sedgwick just delivered, and I invite others to back me up on this.

Re: Senior Tournaments in 2021
Thanks Simon but generally I don't include local and weekend events in my calendar.
Only ones of 7 or more rounds that people might actually consider travelling to.
There are usually some local Austrian, Croatian and other senior events to be found on chess-results.com if you search for "Senior".
