Upper School Ratings

Let's get those "Media Release" forms back so I can put your names in below. Let's get the green chart filled out as much as we can. Set clocks for 30 min each and always play with the touch-move rule. Touch a piece - you must move it. Let go - your turn is done. Touch a piece with intent to capture with either your hand or your piece and you must capture. Think completely before touching a piece.

Tournament Results

Wow! Congratulations to one of our 6th graders who had 4 wins and received an outstanding performance medal (formerly a golden knight award). He has now earned his Silver Medal.

Congratulations to a 2nd grader who had 3 wins, 2 draws and no losses and won the novice trophy! He has now earned his Bronze Medal! His rating went sky-high and only one boy in our chess club is ahead of him.

The other second grader that participated Saturday raised his rating by 5 points.

Listen for the announcements at school if you want to know who these chess players are.

Tournament April 5

Although this isn't a tournament the school is helping fund or providing a bus, this is a good tournament for top players. Why? Because the top 16 players are competing in their own sections. Those are the 16 kids that usually get the trophies, so this tournament allows top players a chance for a trophy.
April 5, 2014 Metcalf Jr High in Burnsville. Should be done by 3:30. Cost - $18. Register on-line or on-site before 8:30 See me there and I'll help you get registered since I have your membership cards.

There is a 5th grade girl who earned her bronze medal at the 2-day statewide tournament at Minnehaha and would receive it if she comes. We also have several players who could earn a medal at this tournament, but you'd have to wait until the fall to receive it.

Hope to see some of you there.
