Our first CCBA Cup was a huge success and we
would like to thank the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association for being our
major sponsor.
The media
coverage included the New York Times, The World Journal, New York One and Sino
Television.
Unlike most tournaments int the US,
the tournament had over 100 entries
with "all matches" umpired.
We were very happy that
our children Adam and Judy played so well. Adam reached the
finals of the 2550 defeating Sean Lonergan 3 games to 1 and Li Yuxiang 3
games to 0 and then losing 3 to 2 to Shao Yu. Judy reached the
semi's of the 2150 losing to George Brathwaite 3 games to
1.
Thank you again to all the sponsors and all those
that supported our event, hopefully we can do it even better next
year.
