For the anecdote… A « coupé en deux » (« cut in two ») is the nickname
of the Wattrelos inhabitants.
T his nickname comes from the last century, where
many inhabitants lived in former stables which doors were made so that horses could get their head out of the stables.
T hese half opened stables doors gave the impression
to people that the new inhabitants were… cut in two !
I n reference to this anecdote, the Damier Club de Wattrelos decided to innovate with a new kind of tournament, involving teams of two, by doubling the time controls and the games per round.
