South Kanara District Chess Association (SKDCA) will organize under-13 boys and girls state chess championship-2007 on behalf of United Karnataka Chess Association at Karnataka Bank Employees' Association Auditorium, Bejai here from November 16 to November 18, informed Gururaj MS, president, SKDCA.
He was speaking at press conference here on Monday November 05. The main intention of organizing the event is to promote chess at the gross root level and to motivate chess players of the state. The entry fee, Rs 50, is very reasonable, he said. This is mainly to encourage players from rural areas and economically backward sections of the society, he added. Unlike the tradition where top two players qualified to compete at the national level, this year SKDCA has decided to select top five players as it has realized that in "the top-two selection" the selection of winners largely depends on luck factor as the selection depends on the performance by other players, he added. Total of ten players will get free entry for the national championship which will be held in Delhi between December 14 & 22, he said. It expects more than 250 entries especially from Udupi and Dakshina Kannada districts, he said. The entry must reach the association on or before Tuesday November 13, he added. Praveen T Mayya, vice-president, Syble Lydia D'Cunha, general secretary, Vasantha Lakshmi, treasurer and Pratibha Ranjan, joint treasurer were present at the press conference.
