  • Granby Open: 3000$ Prize Fund (based on 60 paid entries)!

    Hi everyone!

    The «Granby Open» (GO), is the Club d'échecs de Granby's very first open tournament to happen. Given that it's «Open Section» (Section A) will be FIDE / CFC / FQE rated, I thought it would be a good practical idea to give it a push here and invite all our Canadians friends outside of Quebec to give it a try. Granby is a beautiful 66000 soul town in Quebec, located 50 kilometers north the american border and 80 kilometers east of Montreal. The playing site is the Atrium inside a brand new elementary school named «Eurêka». Granby is well known for its refined gastronomy, its zoo, and its clean, pleasant and securitary surroundings. There will be plenty of things to do for your beloved ones while you will be fighting hard to make your countless hours of study and practise pay off.

    There will be three sections: Section A is open and FIDE / CFC / FQE rated, Section B is <1800 and Section is C <1400. Time controls are 75 minutes for 30 moves and an extra 30 minutes for mate. Incrementation is 30 seconds for each move from move one. Prize fund is $3000 based on 60 paid entries. Please refer to https://clubdechecsdegranby.weebly.c...tournament.pdf to see our promotionnal document.
