          Henry,

          Not likely we will have early pairings on Friday night as the registration is open till early morning where will close the registration about one hour before tournament begins.

          On another note, we have about 140 players on board now.

          We will probably close the registration once we reach 150 players.

          We have about 14 players in the top section.

          Cheers

              Please take note that we will most likely close online registration tonight at about 9PM.

              Onsite fee will be an additional $ 20 and we will close the registration at 8.30AM which is 1 hour before round 1 begins. Round 1 should start on time as always.

              We have about 20 players in the top section now. Total players about 150 now.

              Thanks to all who have registered making this Ontario Junior CC one of the biggest in their history. Last year - 100 players

              See you guys tomorrow morning.

              Going to set up in the next couple of hours

              Cheers

                      Hi Henry,

                      We will send the scoresheets to Hugh Brodie. For the lives games ( 3* 5 ) - 15 games, you can down load the games.

                      The rest of the games for section 1 and 2 - Once we get to Hugh Brodie, maybe you can see their games in Canbase.

                      I don't know if anybody else will key the games and produce them in pgn.

                      Hope this explain

                      Thanks

                      Gary

                          The ratings has been updated in the CFC website.

                          Fide rating should be updated by Feb 1, 2019

                          This year 2019 OJCC champion for the top section is FM Eugene Hua, runners up - FM Nicholas Vettese and top girl WFM Svitlana Demchenko from Ottawa.

                          Total number of participants were 151 players which is 50% more than 2018.

                          I would like to thank IA Danny Goldenberg and assistant Mikhail Egorov for such a well run tournament.

                          Many thanks to parents and players who attended making this tournament one of the most successful OJCC.

                          Cheers
