We conclude the results of the 2010-12 Album with the report of the Fairies section.
As the director writes, the task of the judges was huge (the number of entries to be reviewed was a bit more than 1500, a record!), but they managed to finish on time showing a great deal of enthusiasm and good co-operation.

10th WCCT: Announcement
Another important milestone achieved! The WCCT-10 announcement is ready!
The WCCT committee had been very busy in the past months with the selection of themes and judging countries of the 10th World Chess Composition Tournament. We invite the problemists worldwide to download the announcement which includes the rules, the time schedule and the theme definitions. As Georgy Evseev, the Spokesman of the committee and director of the tournament, points out the 10th WCCT will be the first tournament that is started without Uri Avner, who was the driving force behind several of the recent WCCTs. We hope that the themes presented in the announcement will provide the necessary inspiration for the final result to be marvelous and to reflect the best our art can achieve. We also hope that this will be a good way to pay our last respect to Uri Avner.
