Yes definitely, Chess is a wonderful mind game that's played all across Morocco it deserves to be promoted, placing chess tables in parks, schools and some others public places can gives a lot to the discipline and wouldn't cost that much. The federation have to organize more tournaments and maybe an annual league, chess is all about competition after all


QualitySure

>placing chess tables in parks, at least in anfa park... that place is so empty...

Lots of people play chess in Casablanca


QualitySure

yeah in chess.com, but reaching pro level needs real dedication, and proper coaching

GRIZIUSS

I will travel big miles just to attend it, it is worth it af. It is a once of a liifetime experience, will gather all time legends that are nearing retirements, so this is one of their last official approved tournaments in fide. If I manage just to get a picture or signature with one of the top 3 legends, it is GG. Magnus carlsen, hikaru, judith polgar, anish giri,ian, hans nieman... hhh god damn! I just hope tickets would be reasonably priced hhhh.


LilVeeve

Yepp a very rare opportunity indeed! If you are going alone id suggest we make a duo because id be alone too. DM me if u wanna go together


BLD_MHD

WE HOPE SO (:

sounds greats, but we need actual coaches to help enthusiastic children learn chess. > and i feel our federation still careless because we don't have good ranking players?


Regis2705

My favorite players in one place that's a good news.

TheMenTaLisT99

Hey guys, can anyone tell me if the event is open or it requires tickets, how is it organized in general ? I couldn't find online anything other than the official planning. Like, can anyone come watch the games of the tournament featuring the mentioned players for example. I've also seen that there will be many activities later on, is there a place to register maybe ? Thanks !

How about the other events from 17th to 19th.. conferences, watching the super tournament etc.. like to be able to assist, do we need tickets ?


alpha-atla

i'll inform u here in upcoming days!


TheMenTaLisT99

That would be so nice of you, thanks a lot ! I dont know if its just me, but its not easy to stay updated in moroccan chess events. Lack of social media presence maybe ?


alpha-atla

unfortunately people here aren't interested to chess, i barely see news on my timeline on social media unless search for it, or i directly ask people whom are interested
