Hola! So pleased to see one of the tournaments that Goddesschess has sponsored women's prizes for many years is once again going to be ON - in person over the board, hooray!
The tournament will be held at The Grand Pacific Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia (Canada).
Quick Note: For this event only Goddesschess is also sponsoring additional prizes for top finishing women in the U1700 group as follows: $75, $50, $25. All Goddesschess prizes are in addition to any other prize for which the player qualifies.
Registration for this tournament looks to be a record-breaker, and we're thrilled!
