Full Event Calendar Now Confirmed


With 17 ‘over-the-board’ Megafinals plus online options available we’re delighted to confirm all dates for the 2022 Delancey UKCC calendar have now been announced.

2) Schools can register and pay for players in bulk (discounts available)

If you wish to takeup the second option please get in touch via admin@ukchess.co.uk.

There are three Gigafinal dates:
