17.08.2006, Summary of the Tournament

(Thanks to Matt Hunt from the English-Team, who wrote this summary)

The 4th European Union Youth Chess Championships has just finished with 100 chess juniors from 21 countries competing in U10, U12 and U14 categories. The tournament was held in Mureck, Austria – a picturesque town in the rural south-east of the country. Superbly hosted, and well organised, the tournament has again proved successful with the players and their assorted team managers, coaches and parents.

The tournament is FIDE rated and comprises 9 rounds over 9 days. Time control is 90 minutes per player plus 30 seconds per move, with most games taking around 3 hours. Spectators are allowed in the playing hall, but are restricted to viewing from the perimeter of the room so as not to disturb the players. The quality of the chess, especially at the top boards of each section, has been very high. It has been a tournament to remember!
