London Open 2014 registration now open

Registration is now open for the London Open Go Congress.

The dates and location are the traditional ones; from 28th to 31st December at the International Students House.

It's a level B Bonus Points tournament for the European Go Federation Grand Prix with 12 Bonus Points for the winner, down to 1 point for fifth place. Bonus Points benefit players in terms of priority for selection as European representatives in international events and qualification for the Grand Slam tournaments.
Please note that only players who have a passport from an EGF member country and have been a citizen of EGF member countries for at least 10 years qualify to receive Bonus Points.

We've also improved and restructured prizes for the tournament including a top prize of £400 and £150/£75 for 1st/2nd "below the bar" in addition to £50 for the highest ranked player at the end of the tournament who started with a GoR of 10 kyu or lower.

Thanks to the Central London Go club and the City of London Go Club for providing the sponsorship for these prizes.

At least one professional is expected to be present to give lectures and game commentary during the tournament. Further details will be provided later.

We hope to see you all there!
