e2e4 High Wycombe Congress : 7-9 October 2011

[Sean Hewitt]

Our first venture at Uplands House Hotel, a superb venue just 5 minutes by car from High Wycombe train station. The hotel has bags of character and history as well as a modern feel following a refurb. We've booked the entire hotel for the weekend to ensure that we have sufficient space!



The event will be a 5 round swiss with a FIDE rated Open, a FIDE rated Major for players rated under 2000 (or graded u170 if unrated) and a minor for players graded U140.

Full details can be found here.

As usual, book early to guarantee your place.

These events do seem to be popular. I'm glad we booked early!

Colours for this event will be determined by this evenings Blue Square Premier match between Cambridge Utd and the might Stockport County!

If Cambridge win, the top seed will be white in Round1 in each section. If Stockport win, or the game is a draw, the top seed will be black in R1 in each section.

First rollocking of the day issued. Not to a player I might add, but to the parent of a junior, sitting in hotel reception eating a Big Mac.
