just google the Berlin-based chess clubs and competitions, and you'll find plenty to give them a try. And every chess club member will be most helpful when learning about your high ELO rating and will willingly produce further information :-)

Would you like to play in the Catalan circuit's chess tournaments? We offer rooms during the tournament.

Yeah that sounds amazing... Where exactly is it happening and what would be the process. I am on the progress of becoming a member of the SC Borussia Lichtenberg but as of now I dont have a DWZ ID but I do have a FIDE ID. I am quite interested in it and would love to join the tournament...
