Organizing was done by idChess partner, the FIDE Arbiter Eduardo Aguilar. At the competition, 6 rounds were played with time control of 25 minutes per game with 5 seconds added per move. The tournament was held in different age categories: boys and girls under the age of 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20, as well as seniors, competed for awards.

“Used idChess and VAR in bug tournaments – the VAR feature is a game-changer! Enhanced the integrity of matches and fair playing in the Coahuila State Open Chess Championship and the COLAM Cup. A must-have for chess events”.
