Just like the past two years, this double chess tournament is organized in Roeselare. After the introduction of the Delcatto’s Bosgenot Challenge Cup in 2023, Belgian Military Chess Club vzw will double the prize money per tournament for the first place in the overall ranking.
The participation of several chess players from Lille Métropole Chess in the Rapid & Blitz Tournament “Bosgenot” 2023 convinced Belgian Military Chess Club vzw to make the 3ème Open International de Blitz du Lille Métropole Chess a club activity.
Ultimately, six members accepted the proposal to participate for free and thus strengthen the association’s bond with the (international) chess world.
At the end of this first official club activity, all participants of Belgian Military Chess Club vzw could look back on a fun chess afternoon with great results.
Now we just hope that a few of the 223 attendees will also travel to Roeselare in December…
