CHESS. BEACH. BLITZ. ⚡🌊
Ready for some seriously fast chess by the beach? 😎
I’m excited to bring you the Altona Beach Spring Blitz 2026 — a small, fun and slightly different FIDE-rated blitz tournament right by Altona Beach!
🌊 Beachside chess
⚡ 9 rounds of 3+2 Blitz
🌍 FIDE Blitz Rated
🇦🇺 ACF Rated
🔥 Fast, competitive & fun!

⏰ Arrival: 2:15 PM
♟️ Tournament: 2:30 PM – 5:00 PM
📍 The Esplanade, Altona – right by the beach!

Whether you're chasing rating points, looking for some serious blitz competition, or just fancy spending a Saturday afternoon playing chess next to the beach… come join the fun! 🏖️♟️😎
