40 students showed up to Eastern Market Metro Park last Saturday, June 4 for the latest event in our series of casual drop-in tournaments. We had a wide range of experience levels represented – some of the students were already seasoned tournament players while others were taking part in their first chess competition.
As always, it was nice to see new friendships being formed over games of chess. We hope participating in events like these helps provide the experience and confidence the students can carry with them into other competitions.
