Chess Rapid Tournament
Rapid Chess Tournament — Haarlem Chess Café
Our first tournament! One evening, 10-minute rapid games, and a room full of friendly rivals. Whether you've been playing for years or just learned how the horse moves, you're welcome — this is about having fun, not rating points.
We'll play a Swiss format, which means nobody gets knocked out: everyone plays every round, and you're always paired against someone on a similar score. Expect around 5 games over the evening.
The winner takes home a 1-month chess.com Platinum membership. Bragging rights included at no extra charge.
📅 Friday 7 August · 18:00
📍 Locael Centraal, Haarlem (right next to Haarlem station, north side at Kennemerplein)
No preparation needed, no pressure — just show up and play. Feel free to bring a friend, boards and clocks are taken care of.
