Welcome to the website of the Cornwall County Chess Association

1st Cornwall Autumn Congress 2022

Played on 18th to 20th October 2022 at the Queen's Hotel, Penzance

Our first autumn congress was held at the Queen's Hotel Penzance, which proved to be a splendid venue in all respects, with the added bonus of its magnificent view across Mounts Bay. There were 50 entries across four sections. Thanks are due in particular to organisers Rebecca & Colin Gardiner and controller John Constable for the smooth running of the event, contributing greatly to the players enjoyment.
