The schools tournaments that the ECF runs under the excellent stewardship of Alex Holowczak has been reviewed to make admin a little easier for schools from 01/09/2025 onwards.
Bourne Chess Club is located in the heart of very active school chess clubs in the region and hopes to host school tournaments in the future.
The three school tournaments that the ECF runs have had a makeover for the entry fees. It has introduced a new Schools Membership Scheme, which is a one-off charge at the start of the academic year. The benefits for the schools include free entry for unlimited teams in any of the schools’ events organised by the ECF. Schools will also be able to nominate students to become ECF Junior Bronze members for that school year. The fee varies depending on the numbers, see this link for more information.
