IM Sadorra update

I received an email from Mr. Chalito "Bing" Sadorra, the father of IM Julio Catalino Sadorra.

I am personally glad that Sir Bing usually includes me in the list of email recipients when he sends updates about his son.

Thank you, Sir Bing.

Dear Chess Friends,

My family would like to share the blessing and excitement about Ino’s recent award, an academic honors scholarship at the University of Texas Dallas, where he is now pursuing a degree program in psychology. He also plays for the UTD chess team, and remains attached to the NCFP as he is a Filipino student scholar at UTD.

He has begun to participate in the university tournament circuit in the US. The NCFP officials whom we emailed to inform about his temporary absence in the Philippine chess circuit were delighted about Ino’s scholarship; Ino remains a member of the National Chess Federation of the Philippines. Ino plans to participate in the May Subic chess open during his academic break.

We would like to thank you for your various support to chess players like Ino. We would appreciate your prayers for Ino’s success in both his academics and chess tournaments at UTD.

You can view his photos at the UTD chess and Monroi websites, http://monroi.com/chess-blog/dr-alexey-root/1000-utd-chess-first-meeting-of-09-10.html and http://chess.utdallas.edu/bio.html

God bless you and your family!

Best regards,

Chalito (Bing) Sadorra and Family
