Young Lions Roar in November

Monday October 17, 2011

Do you have what it takes to be the leader of the pride?  Registration is now open for the Young Lions Tournament, run by the American Go Honor Society (AGHS).  Last year’s winner in the dan division, Vincent Zhuang 6d, went on to represent the US at the World Youth Go Championships.  Will this year’s tourney predict our next US Champions as well?  The tourney is scheduled for November 12-13.  Participants must be 18 or younger and have solid, KGS or AGA ranks. All matches will be played on KGS in the AGHS Tournament room (Room List –> Tournaments). Prizes will be awarded to the top three in each division. Spectators are welcome, and the E-J will highlight some of the more interesting match ups.  -Paul Barchilon, E-J Youth Editor
