No my small club doesn’t have enough people keen enough for that. I did try to play in one of their OTB congresses but got ill. The online stuff has worked really well for us as a club.

If you are afraid of IQP positions in the exchange caro with Qc7, you dont have to go for e5 right away, e6->Be6->Nge7->O-O followed by either f4 if White's bishop is on e3 waiting to get trapped, or f6-> e5 imo gives Black much better chances
