The tenth Standard Chartered Bank School Chess Tournament is currently going on at the Bangladesh Chess Federation hall room. With around 200 chess-players from 55 schools of Bangladesh, India and Nepal competing in the nine-day meet, the event is surely getting rather interesting with each passing day.
The nine-round Swiss league basis tournament will be played in three sections – KG to Class-V, Class VI to Class X and the girls’ section. The champion of the first group will receive Tk 40,000 as the prize money, the second group’s prize money will be Tk 26,000 and the winner of the girls’ section will get Tk 34,000. The tournament will end July 16.
