The ICU have accepted the kind offer to host a blitz event on March 4th in the Gresham Hotel as part of The Confucius Cup Go & Chinese Chess Tournament. Proceeds of our event will be donated to charity. Entries will be €5 and ICU membership is not required as we hope to see as many entrants as possible. Registration will be at 7pm.

The idea behind this partnership is to see if we can help each other grow in the future whether that be by potentially sharing venues, exploring joint projects or simply offering each other different perspectives and ideas.
