Sir,

As per Sports Policy announced recently by Goa Government any student who participates in State level selection tournament will received 15 marks. This is a good gesture and opportunity given by our Sports Minister Babu Azgaonkar. Thanks to his vision to promote sports culture in Goa.

This is also a good opportunity to promote sports in general and Chess, which we look at as learning tool, in particular.

You are aware that Chess tournaments are held in various age categories at World and National level.
They include
1. Under 7, 2. Under 9, 3. Under 11, 4. Under 13, 5. Under 15 Sub Junior, 6. Under 17, 7. Under 19 Junior, 6. Under 25, 9. Inter City, 10. Senior National Open Category and Girls/Women Category in each section, in all total 20 Selection Chess Tournaments are held every year.

Its a good opportunity for a chess player to participate in any one of the selection tournament. SSC student can participate in Senior State Selection Chess tournament and obtain the participation certificate to avail 15 Marks benefit.

Considering this opportunity, all SSC Students are likely to participate in Under 15 Sub-Junior Selection Tournament. National Under 15 is scheduled to be held on Sep 4 to 12 at New Delhi.

As also SSC and Higher Secondary Students are likely to participate in Under 19 Junior State Selection Tournament. National Junior Tournament is schedule to be held on Sep 30 to Oct 9 at Orissa.

This is a good opportunity to promote chess among schools students.
Its a win win situation for both Goa Chess Association and Goan Students Community.

Its only two months left for National Selection. Selected Goa Team should also get good coaching from expert. Looking at the time constrains Goa Chess Association should announce the dates of selection tournament at the earliest for the benefit of all.

Yours faithfully.

Shrikant Vinayak Barve
