Latest trace

The FIDE list of rated tournaments for September 2026 carries "THE BELGIAN CHESS CLUB BLITZ SEPTEMBER 2026" in Anderlecht, dated 25 September 2026. The club site lists Wednesday and Friday activities at De Rinck, rounds 5 and 6 of its "Open No Surrender" on Friday 16 and Friday 23 October 2026 and an annual Tonoli memorial. The federation register lists Friday hours 18:30-24:00 at Gemeenschapscentrum De Rinck, Dapperheidsplein 7. The FIDE list also carries a series of Friday FIDE opens in Brussels (the latest, "Open The Sorcerer's Apprentice 2026", from 8 May to 19 June 2026) and the monthly "Blitz The Belgian" from January to June 2026. The FIDE record of these opens names as chief organiser the person whom the federation register lists as president and tournament director of this club, and a March 2025 guide names the same person as the club's information contact; no FIDE page names the club itself as organiser, so the link rests on the name alone.
