As we previously announced we have set up a Chester online group on Lichess. Membership is free and easy to set up. We will hold our first session for playing slowish blitz (5min+3sec per move increment) on Thursday 26th March at 7.30pm-9.30pm. To take part you need to first join the Chester team: https://lichess.org/team/chester-chess-club noting your real name on your request and then join the tournament Chester Thursday Arena https://lichess.org/tournament/l8ZBbXrJ. (Ignore the event labelled “battle” which I set up in error and can’t delete.) It will be run in the form of a tournament but you don’t have to take it overly seriously and you can take breaks between games if you wish.
