Informacija tiems, kas sugalvos važiuoti
Dear readers,
Please find in attachment more information about the upcoming tournament in China in December of this year.
For the moment, you can communicate with me but I hope to be able to put you in direct contact with the organization as soon as possible.
Some practical points:
- Please only enrolments from/through national federations
- Please indicate FMJD rating, date of birth, sex and hometown of player(s), and full contact information of contact person (player or federation)
- Maybe a second information request will follow (because of invitation for visa application)
Travel costs are for the players and/or their federation or sponsor. Full lodging is provided for by the organization. Per federation, one coach/accompanying person can also be lodged by the organization.
I hope to have provided you with some useful information and hope for participation from several European countries. The Netherlands will go with at least one player, hopefully two. Please be aware of the rating and the age limit for this tournament!
Best regards,
Marcel Kosters
