First university chess club to be founded entirely online in the Netherlands

So our new chess club of The Hague University seems to have gained a moment in history I thought might be interesting to share with Chess.com.

We were scheduled to open the chess club by appointment on the 17th of March, but due to the corona virus everything had to be shut down in the Netherlands pretty much on that day. We got the go ahead from the school that we can start it all online since we are all isolating anyway. So since this happened pretty much when the lockdown started we are officially the first club (of anything) in our school of 30,000 to officially be founded as an online platform only ... by extension it could also mean we are the first uni club in the Netherlands to be started online since we are so close to the lockdown date.

I thought it would be worth sharing because more than likely that means I'll have to have everyone download the Chess.com app and figure out how to make it work with teams.

Very cool

Congratulations Hague University!

You inspired us very much in funding our first chess club as an online platform.

We try to turn this Covid-related threath into an opportunity to involve more students in this noble sport!

Cool. We can connect too then. I always encourage chess to help cope with anxiety related problems so there's potential.

Do any of you guys know if there's any way to confirm this for certain? I mean, strictly speaking if we are the first student body to be entirely founded and based online there's some bragging rights to it. At least we would be the first of this so-called Covid era. It's also kind of ironic that such an old fashioned game would lead the way on this.

Buenas Tardes, la razón de esta nota es para informar que fui sancionado incorrectamente. me estaban anunciando el inicio de un tornea que comenzaba en 2 minutos al tiempo que ponían a jugar un partido de 30 minutos, quise jugar el torneo Arena y no comenzar a jugar el partido que CHESS.COM me obligaba a suspender para iniciar mi inclusión que de muy buen agrado hubiera participado. no comprendo la sanción tan despótica de la que soy victima. por favor explíquenme para que promocionan el inicio de un torneo si después sancionan a los que quieren participar . me retiro del sitio muy dolido por el manoseo que fui objeto bajo todo punto de vista.

Good afternoon, the reason for this note is to report that I was wrongly sanctioned. They were announcing the start of a tournament that started in 2 minutes while they were playing a 30-minute game, I wanted to play the Arena tournament and not start playing the game that CHESS.COM forced me to suspend to start my inclusion that I would have been very happy to participate. I do not understand the despotic sanction of which I am a victim. please explain to me so that they promote the beginning of a tournament if later they sanction those who want to participate. I withdraw from the site very hurt by the handling that I was the object from all points of view. Cheers
