Christmas Lightning

​These fun Lightning event are highlights of the year. A buzzer sounds every 10 seconds, and you have to move on the buzzer. Insanely quick chess, a great leveller and a lots of puzzled players.

Pieces are lost and won, mistakes abound, and usually a dollop of luck is involved. A chance to beat a serious chess player, and maybe win a cash prize! A large variety of hot and cold snacks is served halfway through, and of course the bar is open throughout.

Five Counties Online league

The Uxbridge 'A' team finished as winners this season by the smallest margin. They won their final match and finished on equal points with Oswestry but then garnered first place due to having more game points.
