Due to the restriction regulation from AHS, we have to change the tournament to online. All players have registered and overpaid will get refund, please contact us if you have any concern. 

New Venue:  lichess online

All players need to have a lichess account (go to https://lichess.org to register one if you don't have) and join our lichess team (you need go to https://lichess.org/team/calgary-junior-chess-centre-cjcc if you are not a member of CJCC online team)

If this is the first time to play CFC rated tournament, you can go to https://www.chess.ca/en/players/membership-join/ to register a CFC number yourself. Please make sure you don't have one before doing that.
