Society - Reg. No.125 / 1958) Room No.70, Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Periamet, Chennai – 600 003. ANNUAL REPORT 2011 – 2012 Dear Friends, The new set of office bearers took over the reigns of our Federation with Mr.J.C.D.Prabhakar of Tamilnadu as the President, Mr.Bharat Singh as Hon. Secretary and Mr.R.M.Dongre as Treasurer along with 6 Vice Presidents and 6 Joint Secretaries from 30.06.2011 onwards. Mr.J.C.D.Prabhakar is an ardent Sports lover and a very keen chess promoter. To recall our memory, it was he who lead from the front to honour and felicitate Grandmaster Vishy Anand when he won the World Crown for the first time in 2000. He wanted to see the World Champion as a King and in pursuit of this he donated a Gold plated Silver Crown and a Maze and paraded him on a chariot. It was indeed a very humbling moment to your Secretary when the responsibility was thrust on him by the members of the All India Chess Federation to which he is grateful. The new office bearers realize that it will take very sincere attempts to match the results of our predecessor Secretary Mr.D.V.Sundar and President Mr.N.Srinivasan who set bench mark in Sports administration. We the new office bearers place on record that we have inherited a treasure in the form of good governance, transparent and vibrant AICF. With these sentiments, I present the Annual report of our activities for the year 2011 – 2012 to this august body. There were some spectacular performances by our players both at the Asian and World forums. The Federation was very active and 135 tournaments were rated by the FIDE of which 6 were International open tournaments. Apart from this, several children tournaments are organised throughout the Country by various State Associations & Academies particularly for School Children. We organized World Junior Chess Championships at Chennai and Asian Schools Chess Championships at New Delhi. All the National Championships were held as planned and the players were selected to represent India on the basis of the performances in these championships. As a result of all these, we have at present 26 Grand Masters, 76 International Masters, 8 Women Grand Masters, 17 Women International Masters, 43 FIDE Masters, 22 Women FIDE Masters, 14 Candidate Masters, 5 Woman Candidate Masters, 89 International Arbiters and 66 FIDE Arbiters. We are now ranked 8th in the FIDE ranking list both among men and women. The number of FIDE registered players has increased to 23,636 from 18,000 and the number of players currently rated is 8192 as on 01.03.2012. The number of players registered with AICF is 10,108. I am proud to announce that our Federation is one of the leading National Sports Federations which encourages our players offering huge Prize money by organising various tournaments. For instance, our players were given Rs.2,06,44,505 as prize money during the year 2011 – 2012. Very few Federations can match this. With 32 affiliated units and 13 Institutional members with thousands of subsidiary units functioning under these entities the game of chess is thus spread through the length and breadth of the country which helps the Federation in furthering its cause. The activities from all over India gained momentum as 135 tournaments were rated by the FIDE out of which 95 tournaments were FIDE rated tournaments. Mr.D.V.Sundar, Mr.Bharat Singh, Mr.K.V.V.Sarma, Mr.R.M.Dongre Mr.S.C.Sahu and Airport Authority of India were instrumental in organizing International Grandmaster tournaments thus making it possible for our players to get FIDE title norms. We should also appreciate the following State Associations for facilitating rating tournaments – Tamilnadu (25), Maharashtra (15), Kerala (9), Andhra Pradesh (7), Karnataka (7), West Bengal (6), Delhi (5), Gujarat (4), Jharkhand (3), Orissa (3), Assam (2), Goa (2), Uttar Pradesh (2), Bihar, Chandigarh, Haryana, Jammu & Kashmir, Pondicherry, Punjab, Rajasthan 1 each making it a total of 95. The vision of AICF to make India the strongest chess playing country in the world is set to become a reality. 21 Annual Report 2011-12 Thanks to the continued support of the Government we were able to provide our players with all possible foreign exposure and also give them intensive coaching under eminent and world renowned chess trainers from abroad. The list of achievements by our players given below gives an insight into India’s emerging stature in the Chess world. We won the World U-12 title through Tamilnadu youngster Karthikeyan Murali. We had a good harvest of FIDE titles this year with 2 GMs, 6 IMs, 2 FMs, 1 WFM, 2 CMs, 2 WCMs in our kitty. In our endeavor to increase the base of qualified Arbiters & Coaches . We had conducted FIDE Arbiter Seminar at Chennai from 06th to 09th January, 2012 and FIDE Trainer’s Seminar at Delhi from 16th to 22nd January, 2012 with the help of FIDE and Asian Chess Federation. For both these seminars we had instructors from abroad to impart knowledge and to conduct the test. Thanks to this we have more number of FIDE Arbiters and FIDE Trainers from our Country. We have stabilized our funds position and we look comfortable. We have saved Rs.3.10 Crores to the end of March 2012 by way of Fixed Deposits and it is our desire to have a very healthy bank balance so that we can increase our chess development programs without any financial constraints.
