List of schools that participated last year: http://www.vint.ee/?module_action=Tournaments-school_tournament_participants&year=2017&action=overall There are four competitions: Russian checkers, chess, gomoku or five in a row and solving sudoku. There are 4 stages during the school year and the calculation takes place in three different age groups: elementary school (1st-4th grade), basic school (5th-9th grade) and high school (10th-12th grade).
