Hi everybody.
Phil is stepping down from running our Thursday night tournaments. We are looking for some one to replace him. Thursday night tournament is very important for our club as it has been going on for so many years. We get rating updates weekly based on players performance in the tournament and there is quite a number of people interested to come to the club from all over San Diego every Thursday night . If you would like to volunteer to run our Thursday night tournaments please contact any of the board members.
Thanks,
Behnam
