The 15th Children’s Shogi Festival” will be held at Kobe Harborland Space Theater (Chuo Ward, Kobe City), where you can enjoy playing Shogi with professional Go players. Participation is free.
This event is held every year to provide an opportunity for children who have never played in a tournament to enjoy Shogi, even if they have just started playing it.
At the venue, “instructional games” are held for junior high school students, elementary school students and younger boys and girls, where they can receive advice through practice. Participation is free of charge, but advance registration is required and is currently available through the official website. First-come, first-served basis. It is not possible to choose an opponent.
In addition to a prize for participation, participants in the instructional game will receive a cushion, candy, and other gifts by drawing lots.
On the day of the event, there will also be special lectures by Io Murota Women’s 2-dan on “Simple Offensive Tesuji” and Keita Inoue 9-dan on “Shogi Strategies to Learn First”. No reservation is required to attend these lectures, but if seats run out, it will be standing room only while observing social distance.
The organizer says, “This event is free to attend and you can play against professional professionals. The organizer is calling for participation, “This is a popular event, so please make your reservations as soon as possible! The organizer is calling for participation. <
Children’s Shogi has
been attracting a lot of attention in recent years because of the success of Mr. Sota Fujii.
I think that it has become much easier to enjoy Shogi compared to when I was a child.
I am thinking that it is time for me and my child to try our hand at this event… ^
