There are still two major chess tournaments for juniors before summer arrives Scholasticchess.mb has their final tournament on May 4th at the University of Winnipeg Duckworth center and the Manitoba Youth Chess Championship (chessmanitoba.mb )goes on the 11th of May at the University of Winnipeg .The winners of the various age groups in the Youth Championship receive free entry into the Canadian Youth Championships ($150).While the winners of the Canadian Championships receive an all expense paid trip to World Youth Championships !!(last year the World Championships were in Turkey ) Remember that they will declare champions in Under 8,U10,U12,U14,U16,U18 ages so you could easily win your age group and then advance up the line to Canadian champ and then World Champ !! Another way for kids to play chess is to play in the junior chess club (for FREE )each saturday until May .chessmanitoba.mb for details. hope to see you out !!
