BCF Awards

Between 1929 and 1979 the English Chess Federation (then called the British Chess Federation) put their name to a series of chess composing tourneys organised, controlled and judged by the BCPS. Details of all the touneys are listed in the table below and most of those from 1932 to 1979 are available to be viewed or downloaded as PDFs. Many thanks to Michael McDowell for providing his copies to be scanned. It is hoped to provide scans of the missing awards in due course.
