5th Sheffield Chess Centre Fide-Rated Blitz

 

The latest in this series of monthly FIDE-rated blitz events was held on Thursday the 11th of June 2026, at Sheffield Chess Centre.  The number of entries returned to a more average sort of figure.  The event continues to attract diehards from relatively remote places, for a mid-week evening event, such as Darlington and York.  It’s interesting that Ben rich finished ahead of his son Aaron, beating him with Black in round 5.  One might expect the younger player to excel better at blitz chess!

 

The following result table is ranked on sum of progressive scores, but that tie-break was not necessarily being used.
