Ulster Masters in 2019

We have alot of chess activity on over the next few weeks. The chess league is running and Bangor Club and Greenisland Club together with the new Holywood chess club are running some brilliant events. As this fills up our event section I thought I would put them on this news page to highlight them better.

All events require registration in advance. Please see links for more details.

If anyone is aware of other chess activity please let us know and we will include on the website. Please email: mark.chris.newman@googlemail.com

Wishing you all well and have fun in your chess.
