  • Mississauga June Standard - Jun 6, 2015 ( Saturday ) - 1 day

    Hi Chess Players,

    Mississauga Standard is back. MCC has moved to a new site which is not too far from the old site. A bigger and better one.

    Pre-registration starts with this posting.

    We encourage participants to register early. Still lots of time but with a pre-registered list early on will most of the time attracts more players and in turn results in more prizes for ALL. We strive to have payout of 70% of the entry fees or more. Details as below

    In case anyone wondering if this is a active rating.....NO....it is a regular standard CFC rated tournament. Confirmed with Bob Gillanders.

    I would like to highlight some changes which we have made to the tournament ( based on circumstances and feedbacks )

    1. Location changed as MCC has moved to new location. Check out the new location which is not too far from the old location. Free parking which saves $ 6 for the participants. Less COST for the participants.

    2. Saturday instead of Sunday. It is easier to get Saturday as Sunday is a worship day at the church.

    3. More sections which means less players in a section and more chances to win in your section. We hope to have 16 players in a section.

    4. Time control changed to 50Mins + 10 sec increment. Feedback from players. For recreation section, it will be an active time control which is 25 mins + 10 secs increment. This section will not be CFC rated.

    5. The rest remains unchanged such as regular CFC rated for the 5 sections. More prize $$$ ( hopefully as we strive to have a better payout for participants ). Entry fees remains mostly unchanged

    We really hope that this tournament will be better than the last one ( Oct Standard where we have 82 paid players ).

    We encourage participants to pre-register early and we will roll out the pre-register list as soon as we can.

    Please send in your entry to

    mcc.sundaychessATyahoo.com
    waterdownchessATyahoo.ca

    Thanks for your support

                  - We have 20 players on board now. Good for 1 section now. Looking for another 70-80 players to fill up.

                  - John Brown gave me an idea to promote chess among the parents and their kids. So I am coming up with a family prize ( 2 in a team ) whether it is father/mother/son/daughter who gets the most points / percentage will get a family prize. The prize $$ $ ( the team winner ) should be worth almost their entry fee. So far in the pre-registered list, there are quite a number of siblings or parents/kids playing. I hope this will spur more parents coming out to play alongside their kids. Parents can play in the recreation section if they do not want to be CFC members. Any two players ( family ) can play in any sections ( there are 6 ).

                  - One and a half month to go. Hopefully more will sign up soon.

                    Waterdown chess club website ready to go. Please refer to the pre-registered list for Mississauga June Standard. 20 players to date.

                    Hope more players will sign up earlier than later. We look forward to your registrations. Cheers. Niagara Falls had a great tournament with 59 players turnout last weekend so we hope to have a great turnout as well.

                    About a month to go. Don't wait.......too long

                          Fixed. Thanks, Cabeb and Kerry.

                            Gary,
                            Great website for Waterdown Chess Club.
                            Looking forward to the grand opening.

                            I also subscribed to your newsletter. :)

                              Thanks Caleb, Kerry and Bob for your kind words. All credit goes to Cheney's design of the website.

                              We just want to ensure the tournament is well attended and well organized so that all participants and parents gets their money worth.

                              As for WCC, it is at the infant stage. There is still so much to learn in handling a chess club and so many things to do. I am actually inspired by what AuCC/SCC/ACC and MCC achieved over this few years. Hopefully things will be clearer in the near future for WCC ( next couple of weeks ). Hope more people will subscribe to the newsletter for chess information eg chess tournaments etc. ( I have a couple of subscriptions so far this morning ).

                              Gary
