Hello everyone,


The 89th Hastings International Chess Congress has begun. The tournament was opened on Saturday at the town's Horntye Park sports complex by council leader Jeremy Birch. The Hastings International Chess Congress was first held in the East Sussex resort in 1895. Councillor Birch described it as the "longest running chess congress in the world, and one of the best known". The chess congress ends on 5 January.

You can follow the games live at the official website of Hastings Chess.
