I think the easiest way to do this would be to use a formset [1] and a
custom template. Something according the following lines
class ChessMoveForm(forms.Form):
white = forms.CharField(label='white moves')
black = forms.CharField(label='black moves')
ChessMoveFormSet = forms.formsets.formset_factory(ChessMoveForm,
extra=10)
then pass an initialised instance of formset=ChessMoveFormSet() to
your template, where you can write
<form action="" method="post">
{{ formset.management_form }}
<table>
{% for form in formset.forms %}
{% if forloop.first %}
<tr>
{% for field in form %}
{% if not field.is_hidden %}
<th>{{ field.label }}</th>
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
</tr>
{% endif %}
<tr>
{% for field in form %}
<td>{{ field }}{{ field.errors }}</td>
{% endfor %}
</tr>
{% endfor %}
<tr><td><input type="submit" /></td><td><input type="reset" /></td></
tr>
</table>
</form>
to present your form.
