Four Square’s last chess tournament for 2013 set
THE newly formed Four Central Squares Chess Association is expected to end the year with a bang as it stages its last chess tournament for 2013 on Dec. 28-29 at the Robinson’s Cybergate Mall, Cebu city.
The National Chess Federation of the Philippines (NCFP)-rated tournament is expected to draw Cebu’s top wood pushers who will vie in the Open and Kiddies divisions with around P22,000 in cash prizes to be given away.
The tournament will adopt the seven-round Swiss system format following FIDE rules. Kiddies division registration fee is pegged at P150 and P200 for the Open category.
Since the tournament is sanctioned by the NCFP, players who perform well will likewise improve their ratings.
The tournament will be handled by director Eduard Dela Torre along with FIDE Arbiter Felix Poloyapoy Jr.
Four Central Squares will also be having a wood pushing tournament this weekend at the same venue.
