DSOL – German Chess Online League – starting soon. Almost 3000 players in 2021. How many could an Australian Teams Competition have competing?
New season from the end of January 2022

The DSOL was launched in 2020 together with our partner ChessBase as an online alternative to regular gaming operations, to which it should come as close as possible.

In the third edition, almost everything remains the same, the video surveillance of the games from the semi-finals is new. All information and regulations can be found in the tender, which is now available for download .
