Our championship is aimed at players with at least some tournament experience (one or two rated events\, say) and may not be suitable for children under the age of 10\, given games could last past 9pm on a school night. Additionally\, if your child has trouble sitting still or remaining quiet for an hour or two then we would humbly request that you consider registering him or her in one of our other rated events and forego the club championship (we love our junior players but there are a few who truly struggle to remain quiet during even the shorter time controls).
