Players Registration Deadline: Mar 30th, 2024
The official registration deadline to the World School on the regulation file is April 6. CFC will submit the whole team to the organizer before April 6.
CFC Deadline is March 30. This gives the federation few days to finalize the team and payment with the early bird hotel discount rate.


Registration procedure:
1. Fill in the CFC registration form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...0_F7w/viewform
If the player doesn't have a FIDE ID, email me, cfcyouthchess@gmail.com with your passport information

2. Search your flight and even buy your ticket.

3. CFC will create an invoice for your payment.

Since the setup of this team is very short, if you decide to go, you need to buy ticket and get the financial ready for the payment.




Accommodation Pricing:
All players and their accompanying person are required to stay in official hotels.
If you register and pay before March 30, the hotel package is a little bit less.

I recommend Canadian Team will stay in 5 stars hotel, Hotel Melia Lima which is closer to the playing venue.

The following is the hotel Melia Lima package rates for 10 nights:

Single (1 person) - $1322.

Double (2 people) - $1061 / person.

Triple (3 people) - $1000 / person.

The price is for payment before March 30th. It will increase $100/person if payment is done after March 30th
