Web Server for All of Our Tournaments

Don't forget that you can use the server to play your Natcor games in all of our tournaments without additional fees! Server play can be guaranteed in our Continuous Tournament (RGCT) - just inform the Controller when you apply for new pairings. For our other tournaments the method of play must be agreed by your opponent(s) but our Controllers will always do their best to accommodate your wishes. So why not give the server a try? It's so easy: no clerical errors, your moves recorded automatically, no delay in delivery, your time worked out for you and no additional records to keep.

You can also register with our Match Captain to join one the teams representing Natcor in various matches with other clubs that occur during the year.

Arkell's Odyssey - Autobiography of a Chess Grandmaster

A review of Keth Arkell's autobiography by Dr. Adam Spencer, our resident book reviewer is now available via our Clubhouse menu: http://www.natcor.org.uk/index.php/book-review. Why not have a look at this and other interesting reviews which have appeared in our regular magazine 'En Passant'?

Keith Richardson GM All-Play-All Tournament

Our APA Tournament has now been renamed in memory of our former Club Patron, Keith Richardson GM. The format of the tournament has also changed to a 5-player, single-round event in order to reduce the number of games and the time required to find a winner. Each player now plays one game against each opponent, 2 as white and 2 as black. We hope that these changes will encourage more of our members to enter and keep this tournament going strong well into the future. You may play your games via post, email or the web server at no extra cost provided your opponents are agreeable. Contact our This email address is being protected from spambots.
