KJCA Online - Monthly Rapidplay Tournaments on lichess.org
KJCA have set up monthly online Swiss Rapidplay tournaments on lichess.org.
They will be five rounds and the game timings are 10+5.
There are two sections:
OPEN (for anyone who want to play in this section - all standards)
U100 (roughly under ECF grade 100 - so ideal for beginners and improvers)
The Rapidplays will take place on the first Sunday of each month, starting at 2pm.
Sunday 7th February 2021, Sunday 7th March 2021, Sunday 4th April 2021, Sunday 2nd May 2021, Sunday 6th June 2021.
These online events take place on lichess.org. To take part the young players must be a member of the KJCA Team on lichess.
To become a member: Create a lichess.org account and then logon and go to: https://lichess.org/team/kjca and request to join the team.
(When requesting please add a note with your name so that we know who wants to join. The KJCA team is closed and we only allow U18 from the Kent area - i,e live, go to school, previously went to our tournaments etc.)
PLEASE NOTE: lichess.org is an online chess website aimed at all players, not just children. The KJCA team area is closed, but if playing others on the site then parents and carers must remember general internet safety and be aware of when your child is playing online.
Hope all our young players are enjoying online chess and that everyone is keeping well.
