SStwo Mall Chess Championship, Registered


Event INFO

Amir Faiz won the event with 6 wins from 6 games. Report HERE

The venue was good since it's a new mall and the crowds are not in yet since there are still many empty shop lots. Hence, there were not many "disturbances".

Arriving around 8.30-8.45AM, the organiser had almost finished setting-up the playing area. I was thinking that there would be a huge turnout since there were a dearth of competitions for the month of Ramadhan. However, the turnout for the U-12 category was disappointing at best. Perhaps, the fact that a lot of schools are having replacement classes due to the previous haze closure is the main reason....coupled with it being the fasting month, there were only 2 Muslim players in the U-12 category.

>>>>>>>>>>>

Registered CP for the U-12 event of a newly-initiated competition at SS2-PJ, about 10mins drive from home.
After playing 2 events at The Summit @Subang Jaya recently and last year (Read SUMMIT2013 & SUMMIT2012), this would be his 3rd competition in a shopping mall.

I find mall competitions to be a bit more challenging due to the "disturbances" involved.

Now, the question is - CAN he be motivated to play!!??
