Pools feature added

The biggest update for months, ScorchChess officially now has support for pairing pools! That means you can assign players to a 'Pool 1' and a 'Pool 2' and have them only play players in that pool. It's a nice way to divide up your large tournaments into something with fewer rounds!

We plan to expand this feature in the future, adding pools into knockout, or pools into swiss. In the mean time you can check this out in action in James Connors’ UK University Chess League live now on ScorchChess!

ChessHeroes Feature

We were featured in the latest stream by ChessHeroes playing in the latest 2020 Chess round! The streamers, a club from South Africa, tried out the pairings, 'watch live', standings, and stats features.

Exciting to think my work is being viewed around the world, gives the motivation to keep building new features.
