Simultaneous exhibition by WIM Eva Kondou at the central square of Aghios Kirykos back in 1984. The legendary Greek champion from Santorini is taking part again this year in “Ikaros” and is one of the favorites for the title of female Aegean Champion 2013!
The International Chess Tournament Ikaros becomes 36 years old this summer, celebrating with yet another marvelous tournament. Traditional but also modern and always in a very friendly as well as competitive atmosphere, with participants ranging from 6 to 85 years of age and from grandmasters to novices, the event has started in Ikaria, Greece.
From 1978 till today thousands of chess players from 5 different continents have taken part in the tournament. This year, under quite unfavorable financial circumstances and with several important chess events at Rio (Achaia), Anogia, Leros and Paleochora (Chania) coinciding with Ikaros (this has been the first time that an international chess tournament in Greece coincides with four other major chess events), the friends of Ikaria confirmed once more their trust and love for Ikaros tournament and the number of participants exceeded the initial expectations.
