National age group begins

The first round of the National Age group begins today at the Cabagnot Training Center in Kalibo, Aklan.

I don't know where to get PGN files after each round to give us at least the feel of the battle among our young mind warriors.

If the National Chess Federation of the Philippines cannot deliver this kind of service, can the sports officials of Kalibo make the move? We are begging you, please?

I suggest that the organizers give monetary rewards to game brilliancies. That's one way of spotting and developing real talent.

So who's your bet among all those brilliant kids? I have mine. Wanna know who? Secret.

Just a feedback sir. Age groupers number of rounds to be played varies, ex. the 8-under girls will play for 5 rounds, the 10under boys will play 6 rounds. We are actually looking forward a 9-round event but usually its a 7-round Swiss system that they applied. Maybe it now depends on the number of participants. Yes, only few were able to attend this years event and players from Manila I think will still make it to top. Accdg to Cong Pichay speach, only top 2 players will be our representative to the Asean and World Chess Championship.
