We are thankful and honored that more than 𝟐𝟎𝟎 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 have registered to our tournament. 𝟔 𝐆𝐌𝐬 and 𝟑𝟐 𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 across all categories.

Every player will arrive with a story. Some come seeking improvement. Some are chasing titles, ratings, experience, or personal milestones. Some are even travelling internationally for the first time! Some are building friendships and memories that may stay with them for years. We may only play a small role in each of their journeys, but we are quietly proud that this event will become a place where those journeys can happen.
