Chess tournament. 2022-23

Incredible chess tournament at our school!♟
Today we have lived some exciting moments in our center during the long-awaited chess tournament. The inner courtyard was transformed into a stage full of emotion, where tables and boards awaited the competitors ready to demonstrate their prowess in the game.
The event was a resounding success, with students from all cycles facing off in one strategic duel after another. Each game was filled with tension and concentration, as the participants left everything on the board in their quest for victory.
The game system used was Swiss, with a time of 8 minutes plus an increase of 3 seconds per player. This pace of play guaranteed fast and exciting games, where every move carried crucial strategic weight.
Throughout the tournament, a total of 5 rounds were played, each one more challenging than the last. Pairings and rankings were determined using computer software, ensuring fair and unbiased results. The initial ranking was compiled in alphabetical order, but the main focus was on the Global Ranking, where performances throughout the tournament were evaluated.
In the end, only a few were crowned champions in each category. But all the participants deserve recognition for their bravery and skill on the board. It was a tournament full of camaraderie and learning, where chess proved to be much more than a game: a true passion shared by our students.
We want to congratulate all the participants and thank everyone who has contributed to the success of this tournament. Your dedication and enthusiasm are an example for all.
Congratulations!👏👏
