*We regret that we’re unable to provide additional details about tournaments more than a couple of months out. The unfortunate situation exists that if we do so there will be a conflicting event scheduled close by on the same day, as has happened numerous times. The OCA does properly use the USCF Oklahoma Tournament Clearinghouse to reserve tournament dates, which are published about a year in advance. We hope that you’ll help discourage the practice of scheduling conflicting events by supporting the event that was first scheduled with the Clearinghouse which is always online at www.ochess.org. Your understanding of this unfortunate situation is appreciated.
