170th birthday.

On Friday (20th May), Stourbridge chess club will be 170 years old.

To celebrate this, there will be a Stourbridge  arena tournament at 7:30pm with a time control of 5 minutes per game.  plus a five second increment for each move.

You just press "next game" when you want to play your next game.

We just need four players to join before the start.
