It is probably time to start thinking about new chess etiquette.

Some provinces are likely to begin allowing small gatherings in the coming weeks. Everyone is wondering what changes are appropriate when our local chess club reconvenes and weekend OTB tournaments resume.

Do we replace handshakes with fist bumps or Japanese bows?
Do we wear face masks? Do we provide hand sanitizer?
How do we clean the chess pieces? Do we even touch the chess pieces?
Do we limit the size of the tournament? Minimum distance between tables?

I am sure everyone has thought about this? Let's share our thoughts!
