Are you a junior female chess player? Did you already participate in the competitions organized by the Chess Federation of Canada (CFC), the Fédération québécoise des échecs (FQE), the Chess 'n Math Association (CMA) and your local chess professionals? Here’s a unique opportunity for 2018!
The 2018 Championnat junior féminin du Québec will serve as a provincial qualification tournament not for one but for two spectacular chess competitions. Play in the Championnat and get a chance to go to Quebec City and to St.Louis, Missouri, to take part in those magnificent tournaments.
Grandmaster Susan Polgar and Webster University kindly invite Canadian girls under 19 yesr old to take part in “The 15th Annual Susan Polgar Foundation Girls’ Invitational (SPFGI)” scheduled to take place in Saint Louis, Missouri (July 2018, exact dates TBA). The event will offer more than $200,000 in prizes and scholarships. The annual Susan Polgar Foundation Girls’ Invitational is the most prestigious All-Girls event in the United States. Every province will have an official representative who will receive free lodging and meals from the Webster University.
In the previous years, the Championnat junior féminin sent to the SPFGI many young stars as representatives of Quebec, including Linda Shi, Yi Lin Li and WIM Maïli-Jade Ouellet. Will it be your turn in 2018?! Here are several reports about Team Canada 2017 :

An important thing to know: oftentimes, the Canadian provinces where junior chess is less developed are unable to send their girls to the SPFGI. In these cases, the managers of Team Canada invite more girls from Quebec, Ontario and B.C. In the past, a very young Rachel Wang from Montréal was invited according to this practice; Rachel and her family had fantastic time in St.Louis. It can certainly happen in 2018 that, in addition to the Quebec Girls Champion, other girls from Quebec would be invited. Only those who take part in the Championnat junior féminin will be considered for inclusion to Team Canada, so it is absolutely crucial that you play. – Register now!
In addition, exceptionally for the coming year, the Championnat will serve as a qualifier for the Canadian Youth Chess Championship (CYCC) that will take place in Quebec City on July 01-05, 2018. This is a unique opportunity for Quebec girls to qualify in a safe and secure environment! Every player who achieves at least the 50% score will qualify, upon approval by the Canadian Chess Federation (CFC). This is yet another reason to register, especially for the girls in younger age categories. Qualify for the CYCC in comfort, safety and security of an all-girls event, without loud boys running around everywhere. :)
In 2018, the Championnat junior féminin returns to the familiar location at Regroupement Loisirs Québec at the Montreal Olympic Stadium, right next to the headquarters of the Fédération québécoise des échecs (FQE). Use this extraordinary opportunity to play against other girls and qualify for the SPFGI and CYCC. Take advantage of a special “early bird” price before December 31! Register now! All the details are on the FQE site and the bilingual flyers linked therein:
