Bursary amounts will be distributed as follows: The
CYCC entry fee will be paid to the CYCC for entry into the same section as
the player entered in the OYCC. Any amounts that might exceed the entry
fee will be paid directly to the player at the CYCC (or prior / after the
CYCC at the organizers option)
Players that score a 50% or better score will be
qualified to move on to the CYCC |

| Miscellaneous |
We suggest that you bring your
own chess sets and/or clocks if you have them – a limited quantity of sets
and clocks will be available on-site for those that may not have their
own. However, the sets that are provided will be for use in official
tournament games only. If you want to play casual games between the
rounds, you should have your own sets. We
expect that we will have a few other activities organized. Such events may
include parents blitz tournaments, simultaneous exhibitions and more. |
You can register online here Until Midnight on Thursday, April 26
Note that this constitutes your registration for the Ontario Youth Chess
Championships. If the registered player does not appear for the first game
(without prior arrangements), he/she will receive a forfeit loss and will be
withdrawn for the balance of the tournament.
Please notify us of any
inability to attend to avoid these unfortunate circumstances at:
Patrick McDonald
(patrick@psmcd.net
) or at: (519) 648-3253 at least 24 hours prior to the event.
