The ISPS organises the 2nd International Friendship Shogi Meeting, following the massive success of the first one held in February. If you were there, you know it was a great day of fun and games. If not, here is an opportunity to make up for that terrible mistake :-). Play against Japanese players of any level, play against other foreign shogi lovers of any level, learn from professional players through teaching games and there is even a place for exotic games like chess, Xiang Qi and Korean chess ;-).
