Thomas Weischede, the president of the Emanuel Lasker Gesellschaft, would like to hold a series of events for German and Irish players. To get the series off the ground, he proposes an Irish-German blitz match, to be played in Berlin on the eve of St. Patrick's Day in 2024.

It will be played in the wonderful World Chess Club, which is close to the historic Brandenburg Gate. The 2022 World Cup was also played here.
