valerio: the name, I think, is Quanguo Weiqi Geren. In 2012 the complete name was: 2012 Wáng Tàixìng Bēi Quánguó Gèrén Sài. This is a swiss tournament in 9 rounds. There is also a National individual for young players (the last winner was An Dongxu 4dan, born in 1992-12-27). [Velobici}: Valerio agree with you regarding the name Quanguo Weiqi Geren Sai is a romanization of 全国围棋个人赛. Don't know about the young players tournament.
