The late (but great) National Master, Roger Abella will finally have his own memorial tournament this Saturday, 1pm, at Cebu's famous Elizabeth Mall. The tournament is said to be of low budget though, so only players from Cebu are expected to come (forgive me for my racism :-P) Anyways, I think that the P6,000 prize for 1st place is very tempting for a lot of locals here in Cebu!
Anyone who is interested about this event, can simply google this page's title and find out more ;)
CLUB MATCH--
The Lapu Lapu Chess Club will battle it out against the CEPCA Chess Club on the first week of August in Cebu City. The organizer will be the proud chess enthusiast, Jun Olis. Sponsors are most likely to come from CEPCA. I hope sir Jun will provide me the names of the sponsors so that I can post them here! Anyways, snacks and small prizes will be given away for both teams. 15 players are only allowed to play for each team. Time controls? Well it's the Good ole' fashioned "long game"!
Hehe.
DEEP CONDOLENCES--
I would also like to extend my condolences to the friends and family of the young yet unfortunately now passed away, chess player James Uy of Cebu. James, you will be dearly missed.
