More online events

The ACT Chess Association held another online event this evening, this time on chess.com. To make this happen, the ACTCA has set up an online club, the 'ACTCA Chess Club'. Players with a connection to ACT chess are welcome to join.
The tournament was a 5 round swiss, with a time limit of 10m+2s. 18 players took part, with Fred Litchfield winning on countback ahead of Jordan Brown, after they both finished on 4.5/5.
Going forward, the ACT Chess Association is looking to organise a few of these tournaments each week. While some players prefer slower events (G/15m) others are keen on the G/5m Arena format. Hopefully there will be the opportunity to organise events with different formats, so as to give everyone a tournament they prefer.
