Receiving my certificate and medal from Maestro Rudy Ibanez. A person who has the dedication to teach chess to kids like us. GM Eugene Torre graced and open the tournament. This is my second time to join the Marikina Tournament. The first is when I am still 8 years old and got the 8-year old under category.
