Apart from team prizes there are also many other awards on Chess Olympiad. There are prizes for best result on each board and also all team are divided on 5 equal subgroups A,B, C, D, E depending on average team rating. This gives chance for each team to fight with nearly same opponents in its subgroup and in case of success gain a cup, what is definitely important for local sponsors.
