EJCOA NY Championship Finals and UK Chess Challenge Northern GigaFinal clashing

[David Blower]

I'm hoping that the finals of the National Youth (NY) Championships of the English Junior Coaches and Organisers Association (EJCOA) which is to be held at Nottingham High School from Friday 3rd July - Sunday 5th July 2026, does not clash with any of the GigaFinals of the UK Chess Challenge, because for the past two years the Northern GigaFinal and the EJCOA NY Championships Finals have clashed with each other.

Does anyone know when the dates of the 2026 GigaFinals are?

I attempted an OBR type search trying
