EKD Cup

The Enclave is sponsoring the first Enclave Kyu Division Cup! No idea how many more we'll have, but I don't see why we can't have lots and lots of them!

This tournament is being sponsored by Sebastian Rieche, who is currently just waiting for his chance to go back to Korea to study to be a pro. He's a really nice guy, very dedicated to Go, and I'm looking forward to great things from him.
If you're able, please support him in becoming a pro, in any way possible, and at the very least, check out his blog: http://beginningpath.blogspot.com/

It's an interesting read.

First Blog

Well, at the suggestion of one of my overly helpful and supportive friends, I have decided that it actually does make sense to make an Enclave blog, so I can document my takeove—er, uhm, I mean... my support of the Go community.

Realistically, this will be the place to come for all our Go news, including Enclave events and upcoming things, maybe some tsumego, pro news, things like that, we might even try to make you laugh!

But, for now, I'll call this post quits and work on the next one: our first EKD Cup!
