Event Organisers

When planning events, please use this calendar as a key resource to try and avoid clashes with other events.

The chess calendar includes all known published events.  If you are aware of any more, let me know!

Everyone may help by notifying me of all events (including provisional dates) that can be published.

This will be very useful for other organisers to avoid clashes where possible.

Do consider junior events when planning adult events and vice versa.

Note that older juniors U16-U18 typically have school exam commitments in January, May and June.

I hope this resource helps organisers to plan to provide maximum opportunity for participation by all ages in as many chess events as possible.

THANK YOU!

Chess Calendar

The Warwickshire Chess calendar is compiled from multiple sources and usually features a few events that are not even on the ECF calendar!

It includes adult and junior chess competitions run by the WCA or that teams from Warwickshire are participating in.  It also includes chess tournaments held in nearby counties, as well as national chess events.

To make things easy for you I have added all the entry forms I can find and converted them to PDF format as the Adobe Reader is free.

Local Counties

Gloucestershire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands, Worcestershire.

Other Counties

Bedfordshire, Berkshire, Bristol, Buckinghamshire, Cambridgeshire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, Herefordshire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Rutland, Shropshire, Somerset, Wiltshire.

Your Responsibility when using this Calendar

The aim is to make this chess calendar as complete and as accurate as possible for players and organisers.  It is usually updated every week with information obtained and used in good faith.  However an event may have changed, there may be a mistake in the information, or the information may be incomplete.  Therefore you must always check directly with the organisers before entering or visiting any event.  For example if an event is not shown as being in the ECF Grand Prix (*) or ECF Graded (~) and you want to know whether or not your games will be graded, then you should contact the organiser.  Good luck and enjoy your chess!
