♟️ About the Organizer

Jaroslav Pokorný is a Czech tournament organizer and the owner of Penzion Rodina in Chornice. He uses the guesthouse as the venue for a recurring series of small chess tournaments that combine competition with accommodation and social activities.

Jaroslav manages the practical organization of the events. His responsibilities include participant communication, venue arrangements, accommodation, meals, tournament scheduling, and prize presentations. Official tournament records also identify him as the tournament director.

Penzion Rodina lies in Chornice, a municipality in the Pardubice Region near the borders of the South Moravian and Olomouc regions. The location offers a quieter alternative to large city tournaments and allows participants to stay directly at the playing venue.

🏆 Pohár Penzionu Rodina

Jaroslav Pokorný organizes the recurring Pohár Penzionu Rodina tournament series. Documented editions took place in 2025 and during spring 2026, while another program is scheduled for September 2026.

The tournament weekends normally combine several short-time-control formats. These include rapid chess, blitz chess, and a separate event listed as Fischer chess. Each competition has its own player list, schedule, and results.

The events generally use small fields and round-robin formats. Therefore, participants can meet most or all of the other registered players during the tournament weekend.

The Pohár Penzionu Rodina 2026 autumn program runs from September 25 to 28. Jaroslav Pokorný serves as organizer and tournament director, while Ivan Kroček is listed as chief arbiter.

The tournament series attracts players from different Czech clubs and occasionally from Slovakia. Its compact format particularly suits adult club players and seniors who prefer several competitive games within a relaxed residential setting.

🏡 Tournament Venue and Hospitality

Penzion Rodina serves as both the tournament venue and an accommodation option. This arrangement allows participants to play, eat, and stay at the same property without arranging daily transport.

The guesthouse provides furnished rooms and apartments together with an on-site restaurant. Additional facilities include a sauna, fitness room, and tennis court. Free parking is also available for guests.

The venue’s smaller capacity creates an informal tournament atmosphere. Players can meet between rounds, discuss their games, and spend time together after the official playing sessions.

Participants should contact Jaroslav directly to confirm tournament entry, accommodation availability, meals, fees, and the final playing schedule. The latest organizer information should take priority because the rapid, blitz, and Fischer events may follow different timetables.

Through the Pohár Penzionu Rodina series, Jaroslav Pokorný has created a distinctive residential chess weekend in Chornice. The program brings together shorter chess formats, hospitality, and a friendly social environment within one venue.
