Unofficial events and FMJD-rated events. These tools are for learning and for unofficial school and club events. FMJD-rated tournaments follow the FMJD's own rules and procedures for referees, results and ratings. Our tools are not FMJD products and are not approved by the FMJD.
The tools are on this website only; they are not part of the children's app. The Spanish, French, Portuguese and Dutch versions are new and are still being reviewed.
