Preston Chess Congress

Introduction

The Preston Chess Congress has taken place on the last weekend in November for the past 22 years. Previously it was at the Lancashire county council offices, but this year (2009), due to budget cuts at county hall this venue was no longer available.

UCLAN, the University of Central Lancashire have kindly stepped in and provided us with a new venue, in the Foster Building (Foster 25), see the uclan map.

The 2010 Congress

We hope to hold Preston Chess Congress 2010 at the same venue Friday 26th November, to Sunday 28th November. As usual it will be a five round swiss system tournament with 4 sections depending on playing strength.
