The CFC Regular Chess Post – January 15/13 –2013 Canadian Youth Chess Championships – CFC Website Page

CFC has started a new page on its website to promote both the CYCC and the provincial YCC’s that feed players into the CYCC: http://chess.ca/2013-cycc . The page tells you how you can qualify for the CYCC through YCC’s:

“How do I qualify to take part?
Participate in a regional youth chess championship (YCC) and achieve a score that meets a minimum threshold. A 50% score is typically the standard for moving on to provincial and/or national competition. If a qualifier is unavailable in your area, it is easy to run your own!”

And this year there is a new economical option for running a YCC for the organizers:

“just a $2 per registrant cost to be an official qualifier.”

For organizers, see the page for more details on the rules for running a YCC in your province and your options re cost! Let’s qualify as many good juniors to the CYCC as we can – give the juniors in your province the opportunity to qualify!
