UFA, 3 November 2016. /Bashinform News Agency, Dmitry Slezin/. Draughts World Championship continues in Izmir, Turkey involving eight young players from Bashkortostan.

The competition is held in four age groups in two programs: classical and blitz.

The silver award went to Kristina Osipova among cadets up to 16 years and Daniil Ilyin (both from Ufa) among mini-cadets up to 14 years.
