2017 Canadian Chess Challenge  加拿大全国象棋挑战赛

Boasting the best players from Gr.1-12 from each province, the annual Canadian Chess Challenge is a fantastic experience for any junior player to be able to be a part of. This year’s event will be held in Toronto over the Victoria Day long weekend on May 21-22 2017. Representing their province, players compete not only for a chance to become national champion, but compete as part of team B.C. Last year Team B.C. scored the highest amount of points in history with 83.5 points, resulting in 11 individual trophies including two 1st place finishes, and 3rd place overall!
