U12 Youth Melson Cheng Wins Open Group Caissa Autumn Rapid
The yearly recurring Caissa Autumn Rapid (15m+5s) was played over 7 rounds spread out over two Sundays afternoons. 40 players visited the Caissa Sheung Wan centre to figure out who would still be able to bring home a Champion title in the last moments of the year 2021.

After the first 4 rounds on 5 December, only Aidan and Gorkem went into round 5 on 12 December with 4 points, facing each other. Aidan won the game and went into round 6 alone on first place with the full 5 points.
But the last 2 rounds turned out to be decisive.
