Mini-Tournament results

Hi all!

On Friday, the 19th of October 2012, the first of two mini-tournaments took place.

We had two divisions, for the juniors (to the left of the picture) and the seniors - two rows of 5 tables to the right of the below picture.

The results were as follows:
JUNIORS:

The SENIORS were a bit tighter and tougher:

We had 4 players tied on third place with 3 out of 4.

The Buchholz (FIDE) or Solkoff (USCF)  tie-break system then determines the order of the players. (there are two names for the same system).  Click on the link to read more about these tie-break systems.

Congratulations to the respective winners, Abbigail and Clint!
I will add some more of the photos as soon as I receive them.

A special word of thanks to Tam-Lyn's mom, Nathasha, for the photos she took during the tournament.  I will put up a link to that photo album when it is ready.

Thank you also to all the learners who helped pack the boards, who cut out the table numbers (JJ), who packed the tables away, who helped clean the hall, who ran around fetching kids and things in my class! It is very much appreciated!
