XI chess tournament dedicated to Defender of the Fatherland Day

February 10, 2019 XI chess tournament dedicated to Defender of the Fatherland Day among teams law-enforcement and monitoring agencies of the Kirov Region was hold in the club Vyatskaya ladiya.

Let us remember the 1 st tournament was in 2009 at the initiative taxation authorities.

Before tournament President of IPA Kirov Nikolay Koscheev made a welcoming speech to participants.

In this year there were 12 teams. Competitions were held on the Swiss system in 7 rounds. The main characteristic of the system is play without leaving. The participants who have an equal number of points compete with each other beginning with 2d tour. It makes possible to call the winners among many sportmen and a small number of tours.

The judge of the tournament was President of the regional Chess Federation, Yevgeny Shamov .

As a result, like in last year

1 st place- Federal Security for Punishment Execution of Russia in Kirov region

2d place- Federal Security Service of Russia in Kirov region

3d place — Regional Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Unfortunately the command of IPA Kirov couldn’t repeat the last year success but we’ll hope to catch luck on the next year.

IPA Kirov wishes to save this great tradition of the friendly meetings at the chessboard on the eve of Defender of the Fatherland Day as long as possible and hope that the skill of the players will grow!

Congratulations to all participants! See you!
