Democracy · Freedom · Peace 2022

 

Democracy, freedom and peace are the basic values of free and equal societies. This we should celebrate and strive for during this tournament. Chess was always a game during which conflicts are solved by peaceful means based on freedom of spirit. Accordingly, there are rather simple rules:

 

► this tournament is open for all ratings
► be kind to each other
► groups of seven, the best two proceed
► this tournament will presumably last four rounds
► have fun!

Start: 22.02.2022, 22:02
