INSOFAR SHAH ALAM Age Group, 2012

RESULTS UPDATE:
It seemed that the tournament is for 4 Rounds ONLY ( Having had a cursory look at the flyer handed out, I had assumed that it'll be for at least 5 or, 6 rounds).Thus, by 1.30pm the competition was over.

Competition: INSOFAR SHAH ALAM AGE GROUP
Date: SUNDAY, 22 JULY 2012
Time: 9.00AM - 4.00PM, (Break: 1-2PM). 4 Rounds
Venue: AMPAC, Jalan Tengku Ampuan Zabedah, Shah Alam
Organiser: INSOFAR CHESS ACADEMY / Arbiter: Nik A.Faroqi

hAnA and the cHEss pIRATE is at another NEW Venue and NEW Tournament. More importantly, this would be the FIRST TIME ever that both will be taking part in a competition in the blessed month of Ramadhan. cHEss pIRATE will be playing in the seldom held U-7 category whilst hAnA is in the U-12 category.

A "unique" point for me is that the competition only allows 16 players per age group. Also the organiser asked the player's age as at 1st January for grouping purposes. Hence,theoretically Faiz falls under the U-5 category while hAnA is in the U-10 group.

...Late Kick-Off(10.30AM) to an early start(8.40AM).
