Farewell to Ontario Girls’ Chess Championship

By corinnawan
February 19, 2013 //

I regret to inform you that I will no longer be running the Ontario Girls Chess Championship. The OGCC has been a great success for the past 10 years and has received a tremendous amount of support. We have had an amazing turn out of girls participating each year with a record number of 146 participants in 2012.  I sincerely hope that girls’ involvement in chess will continue to climb. I will be posting information regarding the possibility of someone else running OGCC 2013  and I encourage you all to continue to participate in this great event among others.

Corinna

To recall memories of the past OGCCs, the website will be kept for a while. Please click here.
