Friendship Go Tour at the Milano Go Club

Milano, 7th March 2000

The Milano Go Club on the 7th March 2000 has received a very welcomed visit, the "Friendship Go Tour" organized by Nippon Express Co.
Okada Shinichiro, 7Dan Professional and a group of strong Japanese amateur players, their ranks varying from 3Dan to 6Dan, have come to play with us at the Club. Even the strongest italian players have found very tough opponents.
We have been very lucky to host these new friends; these are some pictures of the wonderful evening at the Club.
