CHATURANGA'S NEW QUARTERLY SCHEDULE AND FLYER FOR SPRING SWISS - Stan Ward

Hi Folks,

Attached is the new quarterly schedule for Chaturanga. It takes us through to the last round of the Club Championship.

*Note* We will be starting all tournaments at 7:30 PM from now on starting with the June 2025 Sectional tournament. Our meeting night is a work/school night and we are endeavoring to start as early as practicable. This is part of the reason for our insistence on no walk-in  registration. Thanks.

 

Upcoming PA Tournaments and Events - Leteef Street  

Hello,


Hope everyone is well. My next rated chess tournament will be in Hershey on Saturday, June 14th. More information about the tournament and advanced registration can be found at the link below: 


A couple of quick notes:

The registration form must be filled out and payment must be sent separately. Players will not be considered registered unless the form is completed and payment is submitted. If a player fills out the registration form, but does not submit payment, they will not be included when it is time for the event to begin.

My tournaments in Hershey are on a later schedule than my tournaments in Carlisle. At site registration is at 10 am and the first round is at 11. 




Other Upcoming Events

Brian Costella Memorial Tournament - September 27th - New Oxford, PA

PA Team Championship  - November 1st & 2nd - Shippensburg University 

Another note - Our first Central Pennsylvania Chess Championship was a big success. 58 players participated; enough to fill up our playing hall just about to capacity. Peter Minear won the tournament with a perfect 5-0 score and Nathan Zeigler got clear 2nd place with 4.5. The longer time control, whole weekend tournament seems popular and the Central Pennsylvania Chess Association (our group of local TDs who sponsored the Championship) is considering planning more events like this. Let us know if this is something that interests you. 


Other Upcoming Events
