First, congratulations to our WYCC 2012 team for their recent outstanding performance in Maribor, Slovenia. And many thanks to the volunteers that make it happen. I'm looking at the facebook page, and I see lots of pictures of happy kids. Fantastic. For a small chess nation like Canada, we sure do punch above our weight at the WYCC. :)
Well, it is time to start thinking about 2013. We are moving up our CYCC qualifier this year to January. Here are the particulars. We had 52 kids last year, and it was a resounding success. Looking forward to 2013.
