PARTNER,

AT THE PALMDALE AGE ROUP, I WAS INTRODUCED BY SALLY BERSAMINA TO GM JOEY AND HE ASKED ME KUNG KELAN PWEDENG I-MATCH ANG RP PARA TEAM NIYA SA AMIN FOR TUNE-UP. MAY TOURNAMENT DAW SILA SA ABROAD IN AUGUST.

OK BA SA BW IF WE CONVERT OUR GOODWILL MATCH INTO A 1-DAY 4-TEAM TOURNAMENT TO HELP OUR RP TEAM IN THEIR TRAINING? I HAVE ALSO ASKED NM CARAG IF HIS LSGH HS TEAM IS INTERESTED, AS THE 4TH TEAM.

ALSO, IN ORDER TO REALLY HELP THE PARA TEAM, I AM PROPOSING NA MAY ENTRY FEE PER TEAM, SAY 2 THOU, BUT THESE WILL GO TO THE TRAINING FUND OF THE PARA TEAM.

FOR FLAG AND COUNTRY!

Agree ako dyan, Sir Rolly. But it's best if YOU announce it sa BW page sa chessgames.com. Tingnan natin ang pulso ng BW. Thanks!!
