Chessboxing tournaments

Sort:

I need help and I don't know where to find an answer. I want to try myself in chessboxing, but I can't find any open tournament for amateurs in Europe. I'm trying to search in Google: chessboxing competition/tournament/championship and there are no results. I found only one post about 4th WORLD CHESSBOXING CHAMPIONSHIP at Antalya, Turkey on Chess Boxing Organisation of India's facebook site. Then I tried to find more informations about it and - there is nothing, even on "Satranc Boksu Federasyonu" site!

Do you know if there are any championships bigger than in local boxing clubs? How to find them? Or maybe this sport is just "dead"?

Thanks.

But is Chess-Boxing a sport?

What do you mean?

Well, tried looking at both world organisations that were on Wiki and both have dead sites so... Check with the clubs, maybe? 

Here is Londons Club Site: https://chessboxingnation.com/

Seems like Finnish club is active too. You can look up up coming events here: https://www.chessboxing.info/events/

No idea if you need to be a member of either a pure chess boxing club or if you can use your previous boxing record and membership in a chess club.
