INSCRIÇÕES PARA A OLIMPÍADA FEMININA

Terminam já no próximo dia 10 de Julho, as inscrições para a fase preliminar da OLIMPÍADA FEMININA de XADREZ POR CORRESPONDÊNCIA.

Até este momento PORTUGAL nunca se fez representar numa prova feminina desta envergadura. Gostaríamos que o enguiço fosse finalmente quebrado este ano e que, assim, o nosso país se fizesse representar por uma equipa de 4 jogadoras que honrasse as cores nacionais nesta tão importante prova do calendário do xadrez por correspondência internacional.

Haverá por aí 4 jogadoras de xadrez (por correspondência) dispostas a representar Portugal?

Para qualquer informação, contactar o responsável da CNXC: Pedro Soberano jpsoberano@netcabo.pt
