The Penya Blaugrana Les Corts (Federació Barcelonès Oest) recently held the 4th Children’s Open Chess Tournament as part of the main festivities of the Barcelona district of Les Corts. The supporters’ club chaired by Toni Nuadi once again exceeded expectations and beat a new record of participation with a total of 106 young players, which shows the great popularity that the event has acquired over the years. Once again, the 4th Children’s Open Chess Tournament of the PB Les Corts had the technical collaboration of the chess section of the association L’Espiga de Les Corts, and once again became a great way of promoting Barça passion in the local neighbourhood, especially among the youngest.
