DATCC Chess Activities Galore

With the sudden increase in chess activities around KL, and not to be outdone by other Chess Centers in and around Klang Valley, DATCC has drawn up an array of events to satisfy the playing buds of chess players from all levels - from beginners up to the advance players level. A galore of chess activities which will include team and individual events, featuring classical, rapid and blitz time control, has been planned starting from this month right up to December 2010.

With GM Ziaur Rahman expecting to touch down on 6th March 2010, chess activities for DATCC is set to go at full throttle beginning from next week onwards. In fact, GM Ziaur's schedule for March is almost 80% booked with 2 outstation trips confirmed, including his participation in the upcoming KL Open in April. So, if you are interested to be trained personally (or in groups) by GM Ziaur, it is imperative that a quick decision is made otherwise, you may have to wait a while longer.....
