In the upcoming youth internet match against The Netherlands on Sunday, May 3 we will play two rounds against eight top youth players on the other side of the world – let’s get in the mood for the upcoming World School Championship!
Our eight Caissa players are: Richard, James, Miguel Angel, Harold, Mei Jing, Anika, Aaditya, and Alan (in order of age, more or less). Each player will play one game with black and one with white.
We will primarily play for honor and glory but we are also trying to arrange a nice prize for the players of the winning team.
Through our Dutch partners, Pathena Chess and Delemare Chess Academy, internet accounts via the Royal Dutch Chess Federation will be arranged on Playchess.com.
After each round we will get together to briefly discuss the games as to also create a valuable learning experience.
Time: 15.00 – 19.00
- Pizza lunch: 15:00-16:00 (that should motivate!)
– Round 1: 16.15 – 17.00
– Discussion of games and break
– Round 2: 17.45 – 18.30

Playing time: 20 minutes per person + 5 sec increment per move
We will be trying to stream the match live on our Caissa YouTube channel – stay tuned!
