Second Chess Club! a reminder for parents.

Great day!  I had a great time coaching students playing chess,

after some casual play we got down to mating with a queen and a king against a king.  So often in games a student has a material advantage and just can't finish the job.  Have your student practice this at home with you.  As a parent you can get the king and have them show you how to mate with the two pieces. 

please please please fill out the Weber Chess Program forms, It is very helpful for me to have parental contact information.  Also the donation sponsors the 10th annual Weber-Borlaug chess tournament, which in years past has been the largest chess tournament in the state.

October 10th is National Chess Day!

  We are Celebrating with the Iowa State Blitz Championship at the Cedar Rapids Public Library.  Registration an hour before games begin at noon.  Rated and unrated sections. 

Day 1! Chess Club has begun!

Today Greta and Sean learned the importance of pawns.  Greta got a pawn to Sean's back row..... she had two Queens!  Whoo Hoo!

We then went to practicing how to checkmate with just one queen and a king vs a king.

Practice practice practice.

Changes in Chess Club

Alas my schedule is changing, and I am not sure what days I will have off.  With the new school years time changes I am thinking 7:45am to 8:40am.  I will keep you posted when My schedule does indeed change.  Also we will not be starting until October as my schedule at work may be changing days.

Iowa Open RBO (rated beginners Open) is on Aug 29th.  A five round g30 d5 tournament.  It will be great to come and play.  At the Coralville Marriot Iowa River Landing.  Claudia Munoz will be there she is the Girls Champion of the USA 2014.   It would be great if some of our girls came out and maybe she would go over their games and do some chess lessons with them.

Congratulations to Carter Phillips, Weber Chess Club Champion

Carter capitalized on a blunder by chess club favorite Patrick Selby in the final match of the Weber Chess Club end of year tournament.

Patrick was awarded the most improved player this year with his USCF rating going up 317 points from August 2014 to May 2015
