Bridge in World Mind Games
The recently established International Mind Sports Association (IMSA) is to
organize the 1st World Mind Sports Games, following the 2008 Olympic Games in
Beijing, China, October 3-18.
IMSA comprises Bridge, Chess, Draughts and Go. All these mind sports (and
Chinese Chess, in addition) will be represented at the inaugural World Mind
Sports Games, which may well prove the doorstep to the Olympic Games.
All WBF member countries are invited and expected to participate in the
bridge series of the 1st World Mind Sports Games. Each country may be
represented by one national team in the open series, one team in the women
series, and one team in the youth series consisting exclusively of players
born in 1980 or later. Team expenses (lodging and food at the Olympic
village) will be borne by the organization.
A series for national senior teams will also be held, on the sidelines of the
World Mind Sport Games. On the second week of the games, the World
Transnational Mixed Teams competition will be played, as it has happened at
every World Team Olympiad since 1996.
Finally, the World Youth Team Championships, comprising series for zonal
representative teams of players under-26 (formerly, Juniors) for the
Ortiz-Patino Trophy and under-21 (formerly, Schools) for the Jose Damiani
Cup, will also be contested in Beijing. There will also be Pairs and
Individual competitions open to players born in 1980 or later.
