SUMMARY:Christmas Handicap 2022
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Christmas Speed Handicap is to be held on Friday the 9th December. It will be in the Pinewood Centre\, where we meet on Thursday nights\, but in the Gym there\, which is a couple of blocks to the right (when facing the buildings) of the bar & café. \nWe will set up some method by which drinks can be ordered remotely from the bar and brought across to us. A cold buffet will be provided\, offering sandwiches\, quiche etc. \nFor those unfamiliar with the Christmas Speed Handicap\, all games take the same duration (10 or 15 minutes\, depending on the number of attendees) but the time allocated for each player is adjusted according to their strength to give each player an even chance of winning. The overall effect is that any player can win the whole event. Quickness of mind and hand are more important than a simple ECF rating. \n(As an aside\, I noticed last year that the stronger players were disadvantaged\, possibly a consequence of the change to 4-digit rating\, and will adjust the time allocation this year to compensate.) \nWe will gather at 7:30pm in the Gym – upstairs – for a quick rundown of the rules and commencing play shortly thereafter. Please let me know if you plan to attend or not. It really does help the organisation if I have a full list of those attending\, so I can prepare the group stage entrants and the time allocation sheets. This Christmas event is also open to friends\, relatives\, former members and members of local rival clubs (Camberley etc). \nRegarding grades\, I’ll use established ECF rapid grades\, or standard if rapid is not available. For those without established ECF grades I’ll use whatever information we have to give a reasonable rapid grade estimate.

SUMMARY:Crowthorne Chess Club – online club night
DESCRIPTION:On this Wednesday’s club night we will have a mini tournament using a relatively fast time control. We will default to use 5m+5s\, unless there is a clear preference for something else. We’ll be using chess.com instead of our usual lichess\, for the benefit of those who prefer chess.com. \nOther than that\, there will be time enough for chat\, and post-match analysis of games worthy of analysis. \n8pm on Wednesday – your chance to be the club’s February champion 😉 \nPlease see Jonathan’s email for details of the Zoom meeting.
