The Hampshire UKCC Megafinal will, once again, take place at the splendid environs of New Hall, Winchester College and be run by Hampshire Junior Chess Association. :D

In 2025 we had more than 200 entries and we aim to exceed that in 2026.

Entries are now being accepted via

which may be monitored via

We have booked the local ice cream vendor who was overwhelmed with custom in 2025. :D

168 entries at close of entries. Down on 2025 but pretty reasonable.

The Hampshire MF is almost the final MF so there is a penalty for that.
