SAJCC Circular was just published – Please go through it carefully and book your accommodation in advance.
Clothing orders will open on 17 September.
** Please note that for a tournament to be rated it has to have at least 5 rounds. Any tournament with less than 5 rounds will not be rated and will thus not count towards Etienne Lewis invitation or merit points.
The SAJCC will take place from 3-9 December at the Wild Coast Sun in the Eastern Cape. The updated circular is not available yet, however, you can read more on the SAJCC website https://www.sajcc.co.za/.
We are aware that this still falls within the school term and we will email schools with the updated circular to gain their input on exam timetables as soon as we have the circular. Please ensure that we have your child’s school’s contact details.
CLUBS – I need a spreadsheet with the following headings. It is the responsibility of the club to make sure that each player’s Chess SA ID is filled in before the list is sent to me.
CHESSSAID | Surname | FullNames | IDPassportNumber | DateOfBirth | Gender | School | ContactNumber | Club |
HELP A FRIEND: if you know your friend’s child has also been waiting for this email please check if they have received their mail. If not then they need to contact me with their email and phone number so that I can update their child’s details.
Kind regards
