The 45th Scarborough Chess Congress
News
Our 45th congress has now finished.
We very much hope that on the whole everyone enjoyed the tournament. We had a very good turn out with well over 300 entries and with such a high intake there is inevitably going to be the odd problem. Our initial issues were making space for everyone. A more thorough report on the weekend will follow but its the end of the month so submitting results for rating is our current priority. So if you've won prizes, well done but bear with us.
All the results can be found on chess-results.com clicking on the following links ...
