  • Mississauga Chess Club

    We had our annual meeting on Wednesday before breaking for the Christmas holidays. The club will open again in 2017: Junior club on Monday, Jan 2, the adult club on Wednesday Jan 4.

    The most significant decision taken was to begin to CFC rate our adult club events. We already CFC rate our weekend events and the junior club, but now our regular Wednesday evening tournaments will be CFC rated as well. Many of our current members are already CFC members, but those who are not will need to join. We believe this will grow our adult club membership.

    Adult club (Wednesday) – After a brief phase-in period, the tournament start time will be moved from 8pm to 7:30pm. This means you need to be on-site and checked in by 7:30pm to be paired.

    Junior club (Monday) – We are moving the check-in time forward by 10 minutes to 7:20pm. If you want your game to count towards the tournament, you need to check-in by the deadline. Games will start promptly at 7:30pm.

    While we had our meeting, GM Razvan Peotu gave a simul exhibition to 32 kids. Thanks Razvan. And the score 32-0-0.

    Merry Christmas everyone from the Mississauga Chess Club. See you in 2017.

    This is good news (the idea to CFC rate club tournaments). I also agree with the start time adjustment too.
    I may, just may, rejoin the CFC and the club...

      The plan is working!
