The FIDE World Cadets Cup 2026 wrapped up this weekend in Batumi, Georgia, and Gambit Bonnevoie’s Adam Amroune flew the Luxembourg flag in the Open U12 category. Competing against a field of 118 players, most considerably older and more experienced, Adam scored 4.5/11 to finish 90th, with gold going to FM Marc Llari of France on 9/11. It’s Adam’s first world stage appearance at U12 level, following his run at the World Cadet U10 Championship in Almaty last year. Congratulations to Adam on representing the Luxembourg federation!
