BYCC 2027 will take place in Turnhout from 6 to 9 May.

Due to the lack of a common school holiday, we are forced to move to the Ascension weekend.

To err is human


Due to an error in the calculation of the tiebreak points in a forfeit result in SWAR (the computer program that automatically calculates the tournament ranking), a wrong third place was awarded to Lenne Paeleman in the U8 girls category. However, the check for the U8 was only done for the prizes and not for the podium in the girls' category.

After recalculation, it appears that Amyra Kapoor achieved the true third place based on the correct separation points. She will still receive a trophy and a game box.

Of course, our apologies to her and her parents.
