UK Tournament Result

The 2017 British Youth Go Championship (BYGC) featured 46 competitors, aged from 7 to 18. Thanks to a large number of oriental players currently living in the UK, there were several dan-graded players (mostly in an Open group shown "*" against age group below) and, thanks to a new club at Harpenden Academy, a group of players around 40 kyu in strength. Grades shown are estimated grades on entry.
The venue this year was King Edward VI School in Aston, Birmingham.
