Africa-Press – Cape verde. <\/strong><\/span>The Cabo Verdean Chess Federation claims \u201cawarding its athletes in the same way as other national champions\u201d and considers that both the institution and its athletes were discriminated against and humiliated by the Government of Cape Verde.<\/p>\n

According to Inforpress, which cites a statement sent by the board led by Francisco Carapinha, it reports on the protest \u201calready presented\u201d to the Deputy Minister of the Prime Minister for Sports and Youth, Carlos Monteiro, \u201crequesting a public reparation for the acts\u201d .<\/p>\n

For FCX, the absolute national chess champion, and also two-time African champion of Zone 4.2, the international master Marino Ortega, as well as the female national champion of the modality, Ce\u0301lia Rodriguez Guevara, were left out of the awarding of national champions at the event. symbolic event held on the 30th of June, in the Sala\u0303o Nobre of the Municipality of Sal.<\/p>\n

National chess champions were not awarded the prizes<\/p>\n

\u201cThe argument for the national chess champions not to be awarded the prizes came from Mr. president of the Institute of Sports and Youth, saying that the 2021\/2022 champions were being awarded, a clearly appeal argument and that \u201cimmediately fell to the ground\u201d since our Absolute National Champion has held the title since 2020\u201d, reads if in missive.<\/p>\n

The source stresses that the title achieved that season was obtained in the year in which, with the covid-19 pandemic, chess was the only sport that had the courage to hold the national championship in Cape Verde and, in the years 2021 and 2022 , when the international master received the corresponding national titles directly from the supervising minister.<\/p>\n

IDJ says it is not an Olympic modality<\/p>\n

As this argument did not work, points out the FCX in this complaint, the president of the IDJ came to say that there was no award for chess because it was not an Olympic modality, for which the federation counter-arguments that \u201calthough it is not and has not been part of the Program of Olympic Games, is recognized by the IOC, and as such is an Olympic modality\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, there was at least one modality, which is not part of the Olympic Games Programme, nor is its Federation a member of the IOC, and it was awarded in similar acts held before this one on Sal. How can Mr. president of the IDJ explain this?\u201d, ask those responsible for FCX.<\/p>\n

In this complaint, the plaintiff recalls that since 2017 FCX has held its Absolute Individual National Championship, and the associations have held their Regional Championships, without any interruption, except in 2020 (pandemic year) when Regional Championships were not held, but FCX held the only National Championship, this year, in Cape Verde.<\/p>\n
