Hi Chess Players,
You are invited to play in the June 2012 World Chess Parlor Swiss Tournament.
All are welcome to play.
This is not a USBCA sponsored event.
You arrange to schedule your game at a time and date
convenient to you.
It is a 3 or 4 round swiss stylle tournament.
A game usually lasts a couple of hours.
You may request and receive a half point bye in Round 1.
The full rules will be e-mailed with Round 1 pairings.
To enter this free tournament, simply e-mail me at jamesrslagle@xxxxxxxxx
by Sunday, June 3, at 11:00 A.M. EDT, which is 15:00 UTC or GMT.
Lea and Mark are unavailable to play in June, so the Mike Allain Memorial
Tournament will start in July.
Lea and Mark will play in that tournament.
Thanks to Lea for directing our May tournament so well.
Congratulations to Victor Laramore, who won the May tournament with a perfect
score of three wins out of three.
