2018-2019 Chess Schedule Region VIII Championships. South State
This information should be common sense but I feel the need to repeat it for everyone's benefit.
At a recent, Valley tournament there was an incident which brings this subject to the forefront. An attempt was made to prearrange a draw result before an important title game was to be played. The result would help determine whether or not players would qualify for a lucrative prize. The arrangement was attempted by a coach and NOT the players.
Sportsmanship, integrity and honor are an important part of the game.
