Back by popular demand (you are welcome Michael!), we will be holding a USCF-rated 2023 Spring Swiss of 4 or 5 rounds beginning on Tuesday, April 4. Rated games of G/60 + 30 will be played in person, one game per week on Tuesday evenings in the Mayo Clinic Harwick Building Cafeteria. Games begin at 6:30 PM. Alternative dates and times can be negotiated if both players agree and they inform me ahead of time. Register before noon on Monday, April 3 to be paired in the first round. Half-point byes are permitted in any round. Participants must be current members of USCF: https://new.uschess.org/join-us-chess
