Streatham Library Rapidplay 2

The second edition of the Streatham Library Rapidplay, run by Streatham and Brixton Chess Club, will take place on Saturday 20th September. Round one will start at 10.30am. All details on the SLR website here.
SLR 1 gets under way
The format will be similar to last time but there will be a few improvements:

-              You can now enter online and pay through PayPal: go to the How to Enter page.
-              Entry fees are a little higher to cover costs, but will still be good value.
-              Prizes have been increased.           
-              The Open section will use digital clocks: time limit 25 minutes with five-second increments.

And last but not least:

-              The round times have been adjusted to give 45 minutes for lunch so you can get to any one of Streatham's excellent eateries, including a recently shortlisted pizzeria, and our favourite coffee shop.

See you there!
