On 22 February 2026 the second Morzyczyn Winter Chess Tournament was held in Morzyczyn, and we had the pleasure of sponsoring the prizes and supporting the event as a partner. It was organised for children and young people up to the age of 18 and brought together 32 young players.
The tournament was not only a sporting competition. Above all it was a space for developing strategic thinking, concentration and fair play. Every game showed how committed the participants were and how much they love the royal game. Whatever place they finished in, all the players deserve recognition for the courage to take up the challenge and for wanting to improve their skills.
One decision by the organisers is worth highlighting: prizes were not cumulative. The winners of the OPEN category were not classified in the categories for pupils in years 1 to 4 and years 5 to 8 and above. That allowed more participants to win a cup and a distinction, which strengthened the motivation of the younger and less experienced players and let them experience the spirit of sporting competition more fully.
As a company we believe that supporting local educational and sporting initiatives has a real effect on the development of the young generation. Chess teaches patience, responsibility for the decisions you make, logical thinking and persistence in working towards a goal, all of which are extremely valuable in education and in professional life.
We would like to thank the organisers for preparing the event so professionally, and the parents, carers and teachers for their commitment and for supporting young talent. We are glad we could be part of this initiative and play our own small part in building a strong, active community.
We are already looking forward to the next editions of the tournament and to further opportunities to support worthwhile local projects.
