Djerba International Chess Festival supports the chess marathon in France
With some friends (Ernesto, Marwan and GM Sébastien
FELLER) from the Metz club, we are organizing a free 24-hour blitz marathon on
May 23 and 24, for the benefit of the Mercy hospital in Metz for the fight
against COVID-19.
Here is the tournament link: https://lichess.org/tournament/nn4UF6mP
Being still in the red zone, emergencies are always
overwhelmed there and it seems necessary to us, at a small level, to make a
modest financial contribution, testifying above all to our recognition and our
gratitude for the whole team of caregivers. So make the choice to offer this
Blitz Marathon and make it open to everyone and free!
In addition, thanks to international solidarity from
the community of chess players, we offer simply exceptional prizes to be won
depending on the ranking, which will be won throughout the tournament (full
list of prizes to come): Invitations (partial or total) for the London Chess
Classic Open, the Open in Djerba (Tunisia), the Kilkenny Chess Congress (Ireland),
the Open in Porticcio (Corsica), the semi-rapid of Echternach (Luxembourg) ,
many online courses with French titled players, months of premium chess24
subscriptions, books and chess equipment to win, etc ... The tournament will be
streamed, soon more information to come concerning the full list of our
sponsors and the few "guest-stars" who will participate in the
tournament;)
To support Mercy Hospital, we count on everyone's
solidarity on this page: Every donation counts, there is no small donation!
