Welcome to the new version of British Columbia Chess History. All the materials
previously on the site are still here, plus I have added lists of champions, exploits
of B.C. players in Canadian events and elsewhere in the world, and crosstables. The
site is very much a work in progress and I will add additional items as time permits,
but if you have corrections, omissions, or comments, please let me know.
A pet peeve of mine has been the lack of a single, reliable source for crosstables from
Canadian Championships. Therefore, I have begun to assemble my own. The links below
have all the crosstables I currently have access to; hopefully others will also find
them useful.
