Back after a three-year hiatus
A lot of tournaments around the world were forced to go on hiatus for a year, two or longer, due to Covid-19 pandemic. This is the only Inter-School Rapid Rating Team event in the country which has no entry fees, yet cash prizes and trophies, returned to over-the-board after three years. Children were obviously delighted to compete with and against their friends on the board, push the actual pieces and press the physical clock in a unique team which completed its 14th edition on 13th August 2022.

The highest rated player and the Captain of the team, CM Aayush Bhattacherjee led from the front and scored 6.5/7. The remaining three members suffered a loss each, yet their contributions were valuable too - Ritabrata Chakraborty 6/7, Shounak Mazumder 5.5/7 and Shresth Mahapatra 4.5/7. South Point won this event for the first time since 2017.
