Hi all,


50 players from 12 teams played in the 2012 GTCL Rapid Chess Tournament, at the Annex Chess Club.

Chess Academy finished on top with 5 wins in 5 matches, and a total of 17 game points (from a possible 20).

Chess Academy was composed by IM Nikolay Noritsyn, Michael Song, Nikita Gusev and Konstantin Semianiuk. Song and Semianiuk were also best boards with perfect 5/5 scores. Chess Academy took the overall and club trophy.

Tied for second and third in match points were Willowdale A and Annex A, with Willowdale taking silver by having scored more individual points.

The CCC Commandos took the Open Prize, eligible to teams with an average rating below 1800 within the GTCL region. Commandos ended up with 2 match points. The CCC Commandos was composed of 4 Scarborough players: Erwin Casareno, Bob Armstrong, Ken Kurkowski and Steve Karpik.

It was a fun and full event, and we hope to do it at some point in the future.
The trophies will be presented officially at the Toronto Labour Day at Hart House, in September.

Thank you all for coming,


Alex Ferreira
