2^nd SSG Kids for Chess Open 2006

This year’s Chess Open attracted a total of 150 students, 39 girls and 111 boys, who participated in 6 sections. A total of 60 prizes were up for grabs which included cash, trophies and certificates. Our age group chess competition is unique in that it is one of the two such competitions in the country where there are separate contests for the boys and girls. We like to thank the parents, the coaches and the teachers of the students, as well as the STAR Metro for making this year's Chess Open a tremendous success for Chess in this country.

Below are the complete results.
