We are excited to announce the virtual format for our scholastic tournaments, open to all players from Kindergarten to Grade 12.

The district tournaments will be replaced by a single qualification tournament, which will be held online on May 9th. The players that qualify will gain entry to the Provincial tournament, where the winners for each grade will represent New-Brunswick at the Canadian Chess Challenge 2021. Both tournaments will be held on lichess.org<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flichess.org%2F&data=04%7C01%7CJian.Li%40snb.ca%7Cedcfb43f3f6843375d8708d900e4c108%7Ce08b7eefb5014a679ed007e38bfccee7%7C0%7C0%7C637541804756371659%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=8iUp3KTvIXittG0SRFI5kld%2FeiG8UMZt%2F7tj0JfBDNo%3D&reserved=0>.

We hope to make this an interactive experience, we will end the tournaments with a prize draw. Every participant can potentially win a chess board, t-shirt, Masterclass chess membership and much more!

We’re working hard to continue giving young chess players the opportunity to play in this challenging time.

Please share with your friends and other chess players. We hope to see you there (virtually)!

Thanks,
NB Chess’n Math association
