The FIDE was awarding FIDE arbiters title for arbiters who had the requisite number of norms. But, as per the new regulations of FIDE, it is mandatory for all FIDE Arbiter title seekers to attend the Arbiters Seminar conducted by the FIDE and to pass the exam. Therefore, the All India Chess Federation has been receiving requests from various States to conduct FIDE Arbiters Seminar in India. The reason being, it is difficult for many to spend money on Airfare, Boarding & Lodging and course fee if it is held abroad. In view of the above requests, it has been decided to conduct an Arbiters Seminar at Patna from 18th to 22nd April, 2013. Anybody who has basic knowledge about the game can appear for the Seminar.
Mr.Casto Abundo, International Arbiter, Deputy President Asian Chess Federation and International Arbiter Prof.R.Anantharam will conduct the Seminar and he will be assisted by International Arbiter Mr.Dharmendra Kumar. All those who are interested in attending the course are requested to send the filled application form attached along with Demand Draft favouring All India Chess Federation, payable at Chennai for Rs.25,000/- towards FIDE Fee, Exam fee, Lodging, Materials and other expenses connected with the seminar. Those who do not require lodging facilities may have to pay Rs.20,000/- only. The form may be sent through the respective State Chess Associations so as to reach AICF before 10th April, 2013.
Arrival & Registration : 18th April, 2013 before : 12:00 noon
Departure : 22nd April, 2013 after : 17: 00 hrs.
