The Telegraph
Schools Chess Championship Calcutta
The Championship
is organised by
ALEKHINE CHESS
CLUB
and has been sponsored for the past
15 years by the esteemed news daily
The Telegraph
at
GORKY SADAN, CALCUTTA
It is open to the school children
upto the age of 16 years or those who are studying class X whichever is less. The
championship is very popular amongst the school children and the organisers find it a very
difficult task to restrict entries to 220.
This is the only school level event in India that has been recognised by
ALL INDIA CHESS FEDERATION
as the FIDE rated chess tournament.
To cover the eastern India, preliminary rounds were conducted by the Alekhine Chess
Club at Bhubaneswar (for Orissa State players), Jamshedpur (for Jharkhand and Bihar State
players) and Guwahati (For the players from Assam State and other north eastern states)
and the first five from each of these places will also take part in this final round along
with some promising young players from Bangladesh.
