Hey guys!

All has been going well on my vacation. This year looks to be as a successful year for the Junior International Cup. I am glad to see most teams have at least 5 players in their team. A few have 4 but should be able to get that extra player in. Only 2 teams have 3 or less players in their matches and that is the United Kingdom and Serbia. I am sure the United Kingdom can do better than only 3 players, but there is sad news in Serbian Juniors at the moment. Serbian Junior players are getting their accounts closed including the 2 best admins in the group: AwfulRuby and Pavle03. I understand if they cannot get the 5 players :(

There is 1 disappointing part to this year as now it will be unlikely that we will go on the chessleagues website. However, I wish to find a way to make The Junior World League popular. If any of you have a great place for advertising it, then please let me know. 

Now that the Open and U1600 competitions are underway, we REALLY need support in the Live Chess Junior International Cup. Not many teams are signed up, and we really hope this will be a succesful competitions as the lower rated get a chance for playing a game as we are getting A and B teams. So,  join the group here: http://www.chess.com/groups/home/the-live-chess-junior-international-cup

If you wish to become admin so you can invite your team members, then I will do so. I have other things to do this Summer (Winter for North America and Europe) And will not be doing that much with the Live Chess Junior International Cup until the last week of the year

For now, enjoy your games and have fun!
