27th Doncaster Congress, 22^nd to 24^th February 2019

This 5-round Swiss event was held from 22rd to 24th February 2019, at Hall Cross School, Thorne Road, Doncaster, DN1 2HY.

The weather was so mild for the time of year that one player withdrew after three rounds on the basis that it was too hot!

Round five was interrupted by a security alarm going off, having apparently having been triggered by some boys coming in off the street and getting up to no good. Final tables were as follows:
