Message to BCCF Members Regarding the 2027 BC Open
The 2027 West Coast Open will be re-scheduled to a date that does not conflict with the BC Open 13-15 February. The BCCF wishes to thank Ryan Leong/Lulu Island Chess for their cooperation in this matter. Ryan and Lulu Island Chess have helped tremendously to grow chess in BC and we look forward to continuing to work together in the future.
Lulu Island Chess will be redirecting their focus to hosting the BCCF sanctioned 2026 BC Junior Chess Championship 28-29 November, 2026. We highly encourage our juniors to participate in our annual Provincial Championship.
