Final Standings for the 2025 Childrens Chess Grandprix
For the Grandprix we split the competitions into 3 - the Primary School section, Lower Secondary School (Form 1 to Form 3) and the Upper Secondary School ( Form 4 and above) and there are 2 sections in the puzzle solving - Primary and Secondary.
The scores for the tournaments are calculated on the position of the player in their section.
| Position | Points |
|---|---|
| 1 | 10 |
| 2 | 8 |
| 3 | 6 |
| 4 | 5 |
| 5 | 4 |
| 6 | 3 |
| 7 | 2 |
| 8 | 1 |
The top 3 scores over the series of the 5 tournaments are added together to calculate players scores. If players share points they share the prize.
