According to the average rating, Canada is number 10 out of 32 teams. As usual, USA (with Akopian) and England (with Adams) are favorites. Top-6 teams get some prizes.

Hi Hans:
Thanks.
I am most fortunate, and grateful, that turning 79 y.o. next month, I still have reasonable cognition, strength and mobility........unfortunately, many my age do not.
I am therefore trying to make as much use of my good fortune as I can.
The "80+ Canadian Chess Player" project is an attempt to combat ageism, and to encourage other mega-seniors who are in decent condition still, to stay ACTIVE!
