Area Players! We have a couple new offerings to promote in the JAX, FL area.
In addition to our regular Sunday Avenues Mall (1-5pm) and Book-A-Million (JTB & A1A) 5:30 - 9 pm), here are two more locations.
SUNDAY
We have added a second location on Sundays.
San Jose Church of Christ located on 6233 San Jose Blvd. Has agreed to let us meet there Sundays from 1:30 to 4:00pm, but we sometimes continue beyond that time. This will be non-rated play, but will include training for beginner, intermediate and advanced players. We have small three round competitive play and spend time reviewing games with Hleb Kharkov who is rated 2302 USCF.
TUESDAY
This Tuesday, we play in Orange Park At Urban Bean Coffee House 2023 Park Ave, Orange Park, FL. This will be a rated Quad format event starting at 6:30 pm, we would like to invite local players to join us. Remember that any rated play requires a participant to have an active USCF membership. This is not a JAXCC club requirement, but USCF - the governing body for chess in our country. All games are Quick Rated and have time controls of 20 minutes with a 5 second delay (G/20;d5 in USCF shorthand). Bring your own board, set and clock. None will be provided. Cost for entry is $1 to cover the submission of the games to the USCF. Renew/join USCF on site before game starts or join others who come to play non-rated games on the side.
