Hammer Celebrates Pride!

June is LGBTQ+ Pride month, and with diversity and inclusion at the very heart of Hammersmith Chess Club’s ethos, we are very excited to celebrate with a big team tournament on Monday 15th June (7.30pm at London Mindsports Centre).

Entrants will be assigned a colour of the rainbow Pride flag and placed on an appropriate board in a team of 8 players. All players in the team should dress in this colour, and each team will play 5 rapidplay matches against other teams. The winning team will all receive Hammersmith rainbow t-shirts!

Prizes for the winning team

These t-shirts will also be available to purchase on the night.

The tournament is completely free to enter, but numbers are limited, so only those registering in advance will be able to play. It will be open to players outside the club, but Hammersmith members registering before Sunday 7th June will be given priority.

Games will be rated, so it is a requirement to be ECF-registered to take part. Please sign up here: https://forms.gle/k8XfcGC8hUv8TWF86

We look forward to a fantastic evening!

Adam Cranston & Jenny Mulholland
Club Chairman & Beginners’ Officer
