The once a year or so traditional friendly chess match between Macao and Hong Kong youth dates back already several years. On Saturday March 2, supported by Discovery Bay BMSE and Hong Kong Chess Federation, Caissa takes on the hosting and organization of this chess event at the Caissa chess club in Discovery Bay North Plaza.

In four age categories, U14-18, U12, U10 and U8, each city will assemble two teams, A and B, of two players in each team. Players represent their cities and will thus not be paired against their own team members.

The games will be played in rapid format according to FIDE rules with time control of 25 minutes + 10 seconds increment.

The Pearl Delta Cup shall go to the city with most accumulated points. For U8, U10, U12 and U14-U18 there will be an individual prize in each age group for the highest score in that age group. All participants will receive a medal.

The wining city will get the Pearl Delta Cup to keep for one year.

We cordially invite anyone to come watch and support our youth!

The event starts from around 12.30pm and lasts until around 7pm.
