The Canadian Open 2008, an event that shouldn’t be missed!
Quebec City has been chosen to host the 2008 Canadian Open. The winner
of the event will represent Canada in Japan at the IGF (International
Go Federation) World Amateur Go Championship. In addition, several players
will be selected to represent Canada in various international events such
as the Korean Prime Minister's Cup, the North American Fujitsu Cup, the
International Youth Go Championship and the International Pair Go Championship.
The tournament will last three days, from August 30th to September 1st
2008.
There will be, in addition to the main event, a pair-go tournament, simultaneous
games with a professional and an official dinner. These activities will
be held downtown, making it possible for participants to enjoy Quebec
City's 400th anniversary festivities. Based on the participation rate
of past years, we estimate that at least a hundred players will take part
in this event.
