Indianapolis Youth Open on May 18th

Instead of our normal club meeting on May 18th, we are hosting the Indianapolis Youth Open from 4p-6p.

BE SURE TO WEAR YOUR CLUB T-SHIRT THAT DAY TO SCHOOL. This is an "approved" exception to the normal dress code.

We are working on having the concession stand open that evening.

================= Details, Details ===================

This is a four round swiss-style tournament with 12 minutes for each player to complete their game (G/12).

It is open to all students ages 18 and under.

Entry fees: FREE for fully-paid club members. For weekly-pay club members (or rated USCF members), the fee is $5 onsite, $4 in advance. For everyone else it is $7.

Prizes: Trophies and chess clocks ($30 retail value) for 1st-3rd place

Register: Anytime between 3:05pm and 3:55pm. Play starts at 4pm, and we will be done by 6pm.

We will also have an "unrated" section (played without clocks) for the more casual players (you will be placed in the appropriate section). This section has trophy prizes only.
