Chess Players,
ReplyDeleteSo who from Buffalo is actually
going to this since I am a bit
confused as to what this is. Is it
a purely scholastic event or is the
same as the 'Team' event from last
Year. I would go down an watch
if someone lets me know who else
is attending etc.,
Thanks much.

Vic,
ReplyDeleteThis is a scholastic event. The adult team tournament is March 21 in Sardinia. You are welcome to come and watch and bring some kids!

Tom,
ReplyDeleteThanks, that cleared up my
confusion - at least as far as
this is concerned. :)
