12th International Open Draughts Tournament
in SALOU
24th May - 1st June 2009
We invite you to participate in our 12th international open draughts tournament in Salou, which will be played from Sunday, May the 24th until Monday, June the 1st, 2009.
The tournament will be played in the Swiss system with 9 rounds. The complete program is shown below. As all former years the tournament turns out to be a great event. After the enormous success of the last years, we are sure the participants will succeed in having a good time, because of the combination of a good holiday near to the beach (50 m), a fine hotel-accommodation and most of the time a spectacular draughts tournament in which excellent draughts players as well as the weaker ones participate. Anatoli Gantvarg, Kees Thijssen, Michael Korchov and Vladimir Vigman have already subscribed. We hope Alexander Presman, Guntis Valneris and a lot of other strong players will participate too. Like last year we are trying very hard to let participate the best female players of the world. We think this to be a great challenge for all other participants.
For the seventh year the accommodation for the tournament will be Hotel Cala Font in Salou.
The participation fee for the tournament is € 55,--. The money prices (in number and height) will depend on the number of participants. The first price will be at least € 600,--. Other prices will be paid for highest classifications, the best women, best senior (over 55 years), best junior and best combination or best game and a “surprise – price” for one of the weaker players.
Hotel-accommodation is available for the price of € 305,-- (including the tournament) and is per person based on a two-person room. For persons, who don’t participate in the draughts tournament, the price is € 270,--. A single room costs (for ten days) € 120,-- extra. A reduction of 5% will be given to the people, who already participated in one of the former tournaments in Salou. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included.
There will be transfers from the airport of Barcelona to Salou and the airport of Reus to Salou on May 23rd and from Salou to Barcelona and Reus on June 2nd. The price for both transfers (together) is for the airport of Barcelona € 40,-- per person and for the airport of Reus € 20,--.

Information from Peter Pippel.
The popularity of the international Salou-open is amazing. The organisation had to announce a subscription stop, because the maximum number of 130 participants has been reached. More is not possible in the playing room. New subscribers will be placed on a waiting list, which means that they have to wait until the beginning of May to be sure if there is a place for them in the tournament. Of course, people can come to Salou for a good holiday, which can be very satisfying in this time of the year. And maybe they are lucky that some people has to cancel their participation. And it is not necessary to feel lonely, because besides the 130 participants, there are about 70 non-participants.
