The Korean Baduk Association are pleased to announce that ‘The 14th Korea Prime Minister Cup Int’l Baduk Championship’ (KPMC) will be held on August 31 to September 6, 2019 in Yeowol County, Gangwon-do, South Korea.

Ireland would like to send a representative. All are welcome to apply, irrespective of rank. Though, playing strength will be a factor in considerations if there are multiple candidates.

Please take time to read through the invitation attached:

The KBA will arrange flights and cover some of the cost thereof, with the player paying up to 70% of the air fare. The IGA is unfortunately not able to assist with expenses. All other expenses while at the tournament are covered by KBA. 

A representative must- hold an Irish passport  on the date of the tournament, and – be a member of the IGA. (IGA membership can be achieved by paying a fee of EUR10).
