Steve Campbell is running another shogi event in Birchington-on-Sea, Kent, after successful events in 2015, 2016 and 2018. It will be held on Saturday, June 1st, at Christies Wine Bar, 1 Station Approach, Birchington (CT7 9RD) very close to Birchington railway station.
More details will be provided nearer the time, but it will probably follow the format for 2018, when the tournament ran from about 10.30am to 5.45pm.
If you want to enter the tournament or make enquiries, please send an email to Shogi London or post a message on the Shogi London facebook page and we will provide Steve's contact details.
Information on the London Shogi Club, shogi events in or near London, and occasional other stuff. Shogi is Japanese chess, and the key way it differs from regular chess is that when you take your opponent pieces, you keep them, and can 'drop' them back on the board later. It's pretty popular in Japan so you often see it in anime and Japanese art, but it's not very well known in the UK.
