CSC Junior Grand Prix

Written By Matt Piper

The CSC Junior Grand Prix is a series of tournaments held in north London, organised by CSC, and supported by a generous sponsor. In each tournament there are five sections: U18, U14, U12, U10, U8. The leading scorers in each section receive vouchers offering free one-to-one tuition from CSC-accredited tutors. The results of each tournament are aggregated, leading to overall Grand Prix winners in each age category. Coaching vouchers are awarded to the highest scorers in each category at the end of the series. The CSC Junior Grand Prix is open to all juniors with ECF Gold Membership (first year is offered free by the ECF).

The second event of the 2025 Grand Prix was held recently at Harrow High School. Over 100 children took part, playing in a Swiss tournament with a 15+10 time control. As ever, the competition was fierce and the standard of the play excellent. Our congratulations to the winners:

  • U8 - Adam Julkarni

  • U10 - Vedansh Krishna

  • U12 - Kai Beattie

  • U14 - Jack Dorricott

  • U18 - Roman Zadvorny

The full results can be found via the links on this page.

We expect to announce the dates of at least three more event soon, all to be held before the end of 2025.
