What is planned on the "Open Day" ? 

The 3rd XOT World Othello Championship!

A seven round "XOT" (random openings) Othello tournament is planned during the WOC 2023 Open Day.  Time controls will be 15 minutes per player.

There will be finals and trophies for various categories (open, ladies, under-16, over-60). There needs to be at least 6 players in any particular category to be valid for finals and prizes.

How much will it cost ?

The entry fee for the tournament is 15€ for adults if you register before October 25th, otherwise it will be 20€. For players under 18 the entry fee is 12€.  The entry fee includes lunch at the venue (you can let us know what kind of meal you want on the registration form below).

When is it ?

The XOT WOC is on Wednesday November 1st which is the day just before the WOC 2023 Welcome Reception. Registration will start at 9:50AM and the first round is scheduled to start at 10:30AM.

Where is it ?

The XOT WOC will take place at a DIFFERENT VENUE than the actual WOC tournament but still in the same area and very close (only 400 meters away from the WOC venue).

The venue for the XOT WOC is the "Ludico Game" which is a pub that runs board game events and is located on via Gianluca Squarcialupo 8

This venue is very close to the Tiburtina and Bologna metro stations both on the metro B line (see VENUE page for more information).
