  • Does anyone know the date for OYCC 2014 ?

    There is no 2014 information on the website http://oycc.ca/

    Before Christmas, Patrick McDonald said he was "looking at" Easter weekend, but two subsequent emails have gone unanswered.

    No reply from the CFC Youth coordinator.

    Vlad the Prez said he doesn't know the date.

    Anybody have any information?

    Why do I care? Usually, about 50 local players travel to Kitchener for OYCC. Those players are invited after a tournament at the end of February and subsequent playoffs after March Break. Unfortunately, our playoffs are booked for Easter, but could be moved to the weekend before. But it would be really nice to know the date of the tournament we are aiming towards.

    Hi John,

    If the OYCC is not during the Easter weekend, you may want to consider bringing your team to the Junior Grand Prix on April 19-20. It is also a CYCC qualifying event. We offered as much as $350 CYCC bursaries per age group section.

    How are you now?

      If you scroll down on the KW Club website, it appears OYCC is scheduled for May 10-11, 2014.

      Click on club schedule and scroll down to 2014.

      I will email Patrick to confirm it.

        That is sure hard to find. I look forward to some certainty about the date so that we can start encouraging people to add it to their plans. I will add the date to the windsorchess.com tournament schedule once I have confirmation on the date.

          Thanks for the information. I'd like to get confirmation of the date before I start printing invitations, because the summary tournament listing does not give a date for OYCC, though it is in the detail if you scroll wa-a-ay down.

            I just received copy of an email (from bookings at City Hall) confirming the date of Easter Weekend for the OYCC (which is what Patrick had been requesting for some time) so the date has been changed from May 10-11 to Easter weekend. Patrick has been very busy with work training.

              Toronto Open is April 18th to the 20th I believe. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
