CPSCC 2010

The CUCC (aka CPSCC) is approaching once again. Last year (2009), if I remember correctly Waterloo came tied in 2nd in the A division. We sent 2 teams of 4 people. Only eight people because it was in Kingston, in -20 degree celcius weather. Anyways, enough nostalgia...let's talk about 2010!

The information for the tourney can be found here below. If you are interested in playing, Alfonso will be forming teams during the month of November (in hopes of meeting the early bird deadline). Please e-mail your information to him...-Full name, Rating (State system if not CFC, eg. FIDE), School year (eg. 2B)

Preliminary teams will be built in about 2 weeks, and any conflicts will be resolved before final exams hopefully.
