As advertised earlier, MCF Office will continue to organize Standard event (time control with 30 seconds incremental time) aimed at promoting longer standard time control especially for the younger players to challenge themselves to be more accustomed to longer quality plays.

The weekly event will start with the U18 age bracket on the 2nd and 3rd November, followed by the U8 players on the 9th and 10th November, and the U10 age group on the 16th and 17th November. The age group series will break for one week to allow for the National Rapid and Blitz event to take place at KL Gateway Kuala Lumpur from the 22nd to the 24th November 2024.

After that, the event will resume with the U12 event on the 30th November and the 1st of December, followed by the U14 players on the 7th and 8th December, with the final event on the 14th and 15th December for the U16 age bracket.

The time control used for all the events will be 30 minutes plus 30 seconds increment contested over 5 or 6 rounds – depending on the number of players signing up for each respective weekend. Events will be MCF Rated hence MCF ID are compulsory for all players – FIDE ID is optional. The entry fee is set at RM50 per player per event and each age group event is limited to 64 players per week. The younger age players are allowed to play in the higher age bracket provided that the age limit is not breached.

All players for each age group event will play in a single group (for boys and girls) with the winners to earn medals and Certificates of Excellence, while all the other players will get a Certificate of Participation. The girl players achieving top ranking for their performance, will also earn medals and Certificates of Excellence for their effort.
