National Chess Federation of the Philippines

The National Chess Federation of the Philippines (NCFP) is a non-profit organization, the governing chess organization within the Philippines, and one of the member federations of the Fédération Internationale des Échecs.[1]

The Philippines have produced ten chess Grandmasters (GM), including GMs Eugene Torre, Rogelio Antonio, Wesley So, Darwin Laylo, Jayson Gonzales, Bong Villamayor, Joseph Sanchez, Mark Paragua, and Nelson Mariano II (inactive). IM Ronald Dableo is GM in waiting after achieving three GM Norms, and needs to raise his Elo rating to 2,500 points in order to get the full GM status.
