Mount Maunganui 国际象棋俱乐部庆祝第20届快速棋赛

Mount Maunganui RSA 国际象棋俱乐部以2月28日的活动纪念其Bay of Plenty 快速国际象棋锦标赛的二十周年。这一单日全国级赛事预计将有来自北岛约50名选手参赛,从学童到退休人士。组织者Caleb Wright 强调其在新西兰快速棋创新中的作用。

由Mount Maunganui RSA 国际象棋俱乐部主办的Bay of Plenty 快速国际象棋锦标赛将于2月28日星期六在Arataki Bible Chapel迎来第20届。作为新西兰首创赛事,该活动二十年前引入开创性计时规则:每一步棋添加少量奖金增量。这一调整避免了比赛仅因时间压力结束,促进了更公平的比赛和更好的体育精神。 “这一锦标赛是新西兰首创,”俱乐部秘书兼赛事组织者Caleb Wright 表示。“二十年前,我们引入了新的计时规则,每一步棋添加少量奖金增量。这阻止了比赛仅因对手时间耗尽而决胜负,并改善了快速棋。” 快速棋比标准赛的时间限制更短,可在一日完成整场锦标赛。Wright 指出,增量系统减少了争议,并鼓励比赛适当结束。“增量引入后,选手更倾向于将比赛进行到正确结局,或在明显劣势时认输,”他解释道。“新西兰几乎所有快速棋锦标赛都采用了相同计时规则,且至今仍在使用。” 该俱乐部自1999年起运营,是Western Bay of Plenty地区唯一的新西兰国际象棋联合会分支机构,成员来自Ōmokoroa至Pāpāmoa。该年度赛事自2006年起稳定举办,仅因场地纵火缺席一年,并穿越了新冠疫情。“这是在棋盘内外的一次冒险,但达到20年值得庆祝,”Wright 补充道。 锦标赛定于上午9时至约下午5:30举行,包括六轮比赛和两组分级赛共1140美元奖金。观众可观赛但须保持安静。参赛者中包括11岁的Tauranga选手Tom Docker,他去年首次参赛。“我很喜欢,”Docker 说。“国际象棋让你用大脑解决问题并识别模式。我进步了很多,这次我想会表现更好。” Wright 将该锦标赛视为竞技国际象棋的便捷入门,提供全国级经验而无需长途旅行。“它让选手尝到竞技棋的滋味,”他说。报名可通过电话、电子邮件或Mount Maunganui RSA在线进行。
