Chess Practice Change


Parents,

     We are nearing the chess championship for the 2013-2014 school year. It will be on March 15, 2014 at the same location where tournaments have been held in Lakeland (Highland Park Church of the Nazarene Family Ministries building). After the last match, an awards ceremony will be held across the street in the main church at the approximately 2:45 pm. For the next five practices, we will be focusing on students who qualified to participate in the championship (you had to play at least 12 tournament games). This will enable us to concentrate on strategies that will be beneficial to our students playing in the championship.

The following students qualified (played at least 12 tournament rounds) for the championship and will need to be at the next five practices:

Alyssa Bourgault             Ayla Bourgault            Andre Apigo            Benjamin Nguyen

Cimi Chapman                  Matthew Gaffney         Owen Austin            Richie Corgnell

Sam DeJesus                  Alex Nguyen                Jurnee Alkhatib        Abe Medina

Amanda Motta                 Carlos Gabriel             Connor Melvin          Deddrick Miller

Rachel Apigo                    Reice Herndon             Sanji Nihalani            Seth McMillon

Bhavesh Ananthekrishnan

 

Championship Practice Schedule:    Wednesdays  2:40pm until 3:45 (except for early release on Feb 5th and FCAT Writes week- Feb 26th)

January 29, February 12, February 19, March 5, March 12

For all other chess club members, I will send out information on our end of the year party and practice sessions after spring break.

Thank you players and parents for help making this a great chess program. J

 

Mrs. Lundquist
