[The three-trial qualifier will be followed by a closed tournament, to which selected players will be invited. A district team will then be chosen for the provincial chess tournament later this year.

In addition to playing a minimum number of games, players must participate in at least two of the three trials taking place in Kouga, and obtain a score of 50 percent or more in each, to be invited to the final closer.]
