After finishing the 27th European Youth Go Championships in March 2022 as a live-event in Prague, we believe that most of the tournaments in 2022 will be held “live”. Since we are lacking local organizers for “live” SEYGO Tournaments, the SEYGO Tour 2022 will be organized as a series of go-tournaments starting in virtual environment, with two tournaments to be played live during the summer 2022: at the beginning of the European Go Congress in Vatra Dornei, Romania and in Zaostrog, Croatia. Two additional tournaments will be held on OGS in October and November 2022.  Read more...
