The website for the Calgary International Chess Classic is now up. Most pages have content, some will only function once the tournament begins. Its a work in progress.

http://www.albertachess.org/Calgary_International.html

It will be a 9 round swiss, FIDE/CFC rated, IM norms will be possible.

A complete list of confirmed players can be found there. This page will be updated as players register. The major names so far are...

GM Anton Kovalyov (ARG, living in Canada)
IM Edward Porper (CAN, Edmonton)
IM John Donaldson (USA)
IM Sandor Kustar (HUN)

The International section will be limited to 24 players. We will only increase this number if it will enhance the opportunity to earn IM norms.

We will sign at least one more GM, and a couple more IM's. Any interested players are encouraged to visit the website for information.

As I am not a web designer by trade, I designed this site to be as easy to use and update as possible. Your comments on how to improve it are appreciated.
