    1ST FIDE-CMA FUTURITY 2017

    From: February 10-12, 2017

    RATED FIDE/CFC/FQE

    Open to all FIDE rated players as well as players with no FIDE rating but have CFC or FQE ratings over 1400 as of February 1, 2017. In order to get a FIDE rating one must play a total of 9 games against FIDE rated players over a 26 month period. We intend on holding these events on a regular basis. It is our intention to make sections of 6 players composed of one or two players who do not yet have FIDE ratings without compromising the strength of the group.

    Round-robin sections of 6 players with similar ratings.

    No bye is permitted. Everyone must play all 5 games. Sets are supplied. Please bring your own clock.

    Registration: Before February 1st: Those who have a FIDE rating - $25, those with no FIDE rating - $35. Free for Grandmasters and International Masters.

    Between February 1 and February 7 - $10 more. No registrations accepted after February 7.

    Maximum of 48 players.

    You must be a member of the CFC or the FQE

    Site: Chess'n Math, 3423 St Denis #400, Montreal (Sherbrooke Metro)

    Schedule: Round 1 Friday February 10 6:30pm

    Round 2, 3 - Saturday February 11: 11:30am and 5pm

    Round 4,5 - Sunday February 12: 11:30am and 5pm

    Time Control: 90 minutes plus 30 seconds per move

    Prizes: Where at least one player in the section has a rating (CF FQE or FIDE) of 2200 or more: 1st Prize - $200, 2nd prize - $100. For the other complete sections of 6: 1st prize $100, 2nd prize $50.

    Organized by Sylvain Millette for the Chess'n Math Association. You can register on-line at: http://strategygames.ca/futurity

    Hi Larry,

    That's good news. Is this only for Montreal or all over Canada or some other locations ?

        This is great for Torontonians and GTA area players. I am sure it will be well attended. This will be good in the sense that players around the same strength will be playing each other. Cheers !

                    Larry Bevand, how much do you sponsor these RR tournaments? Was there a change in how much CFC/FIDE charge for them?

                    From a site: http://chess.ca/rating-fees
                    FIDE Rating Fees
                    Round Robin & matches
                    Average Rating U2300 $ 100

                    35 * 6 (income) -100 (1s) -50 (2nd) -100 (rating) = -40

                    Probably your math is different LOL

                      The Chess'n Math Association is sponsoring the event. The response to the first one has been good. My idea was to run these monthly. From July 22-30, 2017 we will be hosting an event with GM and IM norms being available.

                          I would love to!

                          Once we get this project rolling, I would like to get Toronto on board. In Ottawa, I would like to work with the R.A. chess club and in Vancouver, the Vancouver Chess School has been a big supporter of CMA over the last few years and a project with them would be awesome...one move at a time however :)
