Latest trace

The club site reports that its Open -20 (seven rounds of blitz) filled up on Saturday 10 October 2026, and lists a blitz open to all on Saturday 17 October 2026 at 14:30 in the salle Orca, piscine de l'Espadon, Etterbeek. The same room (salle Orca, Espadon pool) hosted a one-day masterclass for teachers on chess and strategy games in the classroom on 8 November 2025, led by members of the European Chess Union Education Commission (ticketing page of the company ChessPlus; fee 40 EUR). The FIDE list carries youth events in Etterbeek in 2026 (CEJB stage 1 on 17 January, JEF stage 5 on 27 June); their FIDE records name as chief organiser the person whom the federation register lists as president and tournament director of this club, and no page says who hosted them. A March 2025 guide lists the club as Les 2 Fous de Diogène, and the link "2 Fous Diogène" on the Excelsior Ganshoren list of Brussels clubs leads to the club's website.
