| Name: Sheffield Athenaeum Club Tournament |
| Place: Sheffield |
| Start date: 1872 |
| End date: Mar. 1872 |
| |
| Notes: |
| The Chess Player's Chronicle gives only the scores of the two prize-winners. I am guessing that this was a 15-player single-round all-play-all, though it might have been a 7-player double-round all-play-all. |
