CFC Membership - Fees
The CFC has several membership types. Fees depend on the province in which the member resides (not the province in which a tournament is held).
The fees for memberships are different by province because 1) each province calculates taxes differently and 2) some provinces have a chess association that receive a portion of the fee.
Annual Memberships
Most CFC members have Annual memberships.
A “Junior” is anyone whose year of birth is ____ or later.
* Quebec residents with an active FQE membership may play in CFC-rated events without purchasing a CFC membership. CFC members may play in FQE-rated events without an FQE membership.
