It is time to make plans for 2020 Chess tournaments. If anyone is interested in any of these tournaments, please contact Youth Coordinator ASAP. Once you expressed your interested, I will put down your information into my folder for future communication. Don't wait until the Canadian deadline date. Once the deadline is passed, you will not be considered as official even you are the rightful person.
