Sheffield age group championships - July 9th 2022

Open to all Sheffield players who were under the age of 18 as of 01/09/2021. New players from outside Sheffield wishing to gain tournament experience are also welcome. The U18/U15/U13 and U11/U9 sections may be merged depending upon numbers.
Games: Players play all five games, starting at 11.00am. You receive 15 minutes each on the clock for the game, with an additional 10 seconds per move. This competition will be ECF Rapidplay rated.

This is an individual competition. However, players may also form teams of 3 players (all from the same school, or club, or town, or a group of friends, etc). There will be a prize for the top team.

This event incorporates the Sheffield U18 (Y13 and below)/U15 (Y10 and below)/U13 (Y8 and below)/U11 (Y6 and below)/U9 (Y4 and below). The top Sheffield player in each age group will become the Sheffield Champion for that age group.
