Go online with your club

ChessBase is happy if you play online chess. And any club that is an official member of a national federation and plays on playchess.com in a virtual club room will get a reward from ChessBase – the ChessBase 15 Online Club Package.

The rules in detail:

  • Every chess club officially belonging to a National Chess Federation is eligible to participate.
  • The club has the task to organise an online club tournament between April 15 and April 30th in a virtual club room on playchess.com. If the club has a virtual room on the server under "Clubs and Associations" you can also play there.

In order for the club to receive the ChessBase 15 Online Club Package, a blitz tournament has to be played. One of the following time-controls must be used:

3 + 2, 3 + 3, 4 +, 2, 4 + 3, 5 + 0, 5 + 1, 5 + 2 or 5 + 3.

To get the reward a round-robin with at least 64 games or a Swiss tournament with at least 64 games must be played.

After the end of the tournament, please send the files listed below (and until May 4th, 2020) to Martin.Fischer@chessbase.com

  1. A short report about the tournament and a copy of the tourn file, which is created by the program and saved on the tournament manager's computer.
  2. Plus a cbv-file of the tournament, which must contain at least 64 games (Note: If a player withdraws from the tournament, the forfeited games will not appear in the database)

Important:

Each club can win the ChessBase 15 online package only once.

Trying to get the reward is free.

Creating a virtual club room is also free.

The ChessBase account necessary to participate in the blitz tournament can be set up as a free 90-day test access at https://account.chessbase.com/en/create-account.
