All of the essential Chess Equipment will be provided for players by the Organisers. Depending on numbers and available space, Classroom size (2.5″ King Height) or Tournament size (3.5″ King Height) may be chosen by the Organisers for use in the meetups. When available and appropriate, Chess Clocks will be made available – based on space and quantity of players and available clocks.
