Newest trace

The chess-results server lists a numbered series, THE SQUARE Rapid Chess Competition No 20 (12 October 2025) and Tournament 21 (25 October 2025), and an Open THE SQUARE rapid and blitz on 24 and 26 April 2026 at Nod Makerspace, Splaiul Unirii 160. Two further Open dates are listed for 14 and 15 November 2026, at two other venues. The press interview calls the place The Square Chess Studio; it prints no street address. The federation register lists ACS THE SQUARE with annual visas for 2025 and 2026 and a residential flat address that is not reproduced here. The club's own site (copyright 2025) prints a weekly timetable of adult and children's groups at Corbeni 34, Sector 2, an online adults' group, and a Saturday and Sunday 15:00-18:00 entry at Stamina Workspace, Constantin Mille 18 that refers readers to the club's Instagram and Facebook pages for events. An event page hosted by the club describes a social chess event with specialty coffee at Double Coffee, Strada Popa Petre 27, on 13 June 2026 (fee 50 lei; seats confirmed through a WhatsApp number). The first lesson is free, as the site states.
