This is to all those who would like to participate in an OTB, FIDE-Rated tournament in Ireland. The tournament is April 29th to May 1st at the Clayton Hotel Sligo in Sligo, Ireland. The tournament website is itsligochesstournament.ie and the twitter handle is @ChessSligo.
If you'd like to play some chess IRL, work toward a FIDE rating, and socialise in a welcoming chess atmosphere, this is the event for you. There are sections for different ratings of players so you don't need to be an expert to play. There will be plenty of unrated players getting involved at a lower level. With that said, we also have GM Alex Baburin, Ireland's only GM, confirmed to attend so we will have an exciting Master section, too.
Check out the website and I hope to see you in April. Cheers.
