Grand Prix Scores

There are 4 tournaments in the Grand Prix series, and a player can play in any number of them.

A player’s total score will be the sum of their best scores. Players who play in fewer tournaments will have the sum of their scores counted towards the consideration of the prizes, so for example, a player who scores  4+4+4=12 will still finish ahead of a player that scores 2 in 4 tournaments, for a total score of 3+3+3+3=12 (best 3 = 9). However, a player must participate in at least 3 tournaments in order to win the Grand Prix Scholarship.

CFC Junior Grand Prix is for all junior players who want to play better quality games!

Why play in two day tournaments?
These are two days tournaments with 5 rounds. The time control is 90 minutes per player per game. When a longer time for a game is allowed, the chess players have enough time to check if their next moves are smart and safe. As a results, they play quality games with deeper thinking and more accurate calculations.

On top of the slower time control, we offer:
**CFC regular rated games
**Qualification to CYCC 2014
**Over $10,000 CYCC bursaries
**$1,200 cash Grand Prix prizes
**Plaques, trophies, medals and souvenirs…

Bye must be requested before round 1.

If you have paid, you don’t have to come early to check in. Just show up before 10:30 for the first round. However, if you don’t show up without notifying the organizer in advance, you will get a lose against your opponent.

Rating may not be updated.
