Another event to keep us going through the night during the 24 hr marathon was the Somnus Cup: four rounds of Puzzle Storm at 1am, 3am, 5am and 7am! Congratulations to Dylan N, who won by a country mile! #chess

We had over 100 people attend our 24 hr marathon last weekend! #chess



One of the highlights of the 24hr chess marathon was our 4am rave! #chess



Our 24hr marathon was live streamed the whole time. A huge thank you to the tech team behind this. We felt very fancy with our digital board! #chess

24 hour marathon completed! What a huge effort by all involved, from participants to the tech team, caterers and special guests (@shrez_royal09 & @sadisticTushi). Thank you all! #chess



Hand & Brain is under way #chess

We have our 24hr marathon this weekend, but that did not stop our members getting more chess action on Thursday night in Denby Dale #chess


Our updated schedule for this weekends 24hr chess marathon. Saturday evening will be particularly awesome with @sadisticTushi and GM Shreyas Royal featuring! #chess

Last night we had Bullseye night, where the juniors solved puzzles to earn a throw of a dart to attempt to reach a points threshold to unveil prizes #chess

Last Thursday we hosted the formidable Greg Eagleton for a simul vs 20 players. He won 15-5, but well done to the four players of ours who scored wins against him! #chess



We have 20 members signed up to do the full 24 hour stint of chess, including the tantalising midnight feast! #chess

Puzzle Monday. They're getting hard recently. No mate in ones puzzles here (unless this is a mate-in-one here, I haven't sat down to work it out yet) #chess #chesspunks

Next weeks schedule! Capped off by the small matter of our 24hr fundraising marathon #Chess

It was the first birthday for our Denby Dale branch this week. To celebrate, we had a simul with Greg Eagleton. Pictures to follow on what was a super fun evening #chess

A press release for our upcoming 24hr chess marathon was published earlier this week, with contributions from the community centre and some club members. #chess #englishchess inyourarea.co.uk/news/chess-clu…
