The Chess Season is Underway

We had a pretty good turnout for the first day, and I know there are conflicts with fall sports.
Bring a pencil next week and we'll see if you can find the checkmates.

Why do I keep ratings?
1. You can monitor your progress over the year.
2. You know which players would the best match-ups in club
3. I use it as an indicator of when you're ready for tournament competition
4. If we participate in matches, I need to select the top 5 players and order them by strength.

If you had a rating last year, you'll start with that rating.

Did you know that more players from more countries attend the Chess Olympiad than the summer Olympics. The United States just won the Gold Medal at the Chess Olympiad.  Wesley So from Minnesota led the USA team with 7 wins 3 draws and no losses! Our women's team came in 6th.
