Match Format:

This event aims to foster player exchanges between sister cities. It will be held in a round-robin format, grouped by skill level, with an 11-point (gold, silver, and bronze medals determined by wins/losses and point differential). Participants will be paired with different partners each time, so individuals may join alone. Depending on registration numbers, we may consider gender-specific or mixed teams. Please note that the match format may change after registration.

​

Skill Level:

1. Pro 4.5+

2. Intermediate＆Advanced 3.5～4.5
   *Depending on the number of applicants, the intermediate&advanced may be divided into two levels.

3. Beginner 3.0～3.5

4. Newbie 2.5+
