2nd Pandanet European Team Championship : round 5 : Belgium - Slovakia 3-1

A beautiful victory for Belgium, who played without Jan Ramon.

Note the incredible performance of Lucas, who managed to beat one of the raising star of European Go, young Pavol Lisy (who incredibly enough passed from 1-st to 5-d in 18 months !).

Lucas Neirynck 4-d Pavol Lisy 5-d B+51.5

Reduced fees on the Yunguseng Dojang Program

Dear players,

Starting from 2012 you can access the Yunguseng Dojang programme on KGS. The BGF offers a discount for its players. Please find full information about the programme here and the information page for payments in Belgium here.

This is an intensive programme that many of us had a chance to try already, and a proof of its efficiency could be that there are so many regular students in Switzerland already.

We hope that many players will seize this opportunity to improve and have fun.

Belgian Championship Preliminaries 2012

Up to twenty players took part to the Belgian Championship last week. It's always an interesting tournament, with ghost players emerging from the shadows, and surprises in the results even in games played with a large gap of level.

Results are online, congratulations to all! Finals will take place on 3rd, 4th, 17th and 18th March 2012, and we'll try to find a quiet place to guarantee seriouse games.
