Are you tired of playing in the same, well organized Hal Bond tournaments in Guelph? Do you find the venue has too many options for lunch? Do you have the blues because those Southern Ontario tournaments are just too close? Would you rather drive 4 hours north to a smaller event?
If so, look no further! The Sudbury Spring Open is here and ready to impress the one or two of you who decide to come!
Here's the info:
Sudbury Spring Open
Date: April 16 - 17, 2016
Venue: Laurentian University, Classroom Building, C-306
Type: Five round swiss
Time control: 90 minutes plus 30s / move
Entry fee: $35 ($15 junior/senior)
Prizes: TBA; based on entry
Byes: Up to 2 half-point byes in rounds 1 - 4. Must be requested before the round preceding the bye.
Registration: starts on Saturday at 8:30
Round 1: Saturday, 9:00 a.m.
Round 2: Saturday, 1:30 p.m.
Round 3: Saturday, 6:00 p.m.
Round 4: Sunday 10:00 a.m. (special arrangements possible for participants arriving by city bus)
Round 5: Sunday 3:00 p.m.
This is a CFC rated event. Players must have a valid CFC membership. One year memberships or one-time (tournament) memberships can be bought (renewed) with the tournament registration. Players that have no CFC rating prior to this event will receive a $5 discount on the tournament entry fee.
In all seriousness, it is a fair bit of fun and if you're chasing the NM title, it's a solid place to pick up Norms.
Hope to see you all there!
