Chess Club
Chess Club is for kids who would like to learn chess or improve their skills. Players are grouped by ability, not age, in the club.
Chess Club meets on Thursday afternoons in the CRS cafeteria from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. Two sessions of Chess Club are offered each year - from September to January and from February to May. Chess Club is delivered through our partnership with the U.S. Chess Center, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. All instructors are nationally certified chess coaches.
Participants must be in grades 2 to 6.

About the U.S. Chess Center
The U.S. Chess Center is an award-winning non-profit educational charity. Since 1992 we have taught more than 35,000 children the rules, strategy, discipline, and etiquette of chess. Our teachers are all nationally certified chess coaches trained by David Mehler, one of the first Level V (highest level) coaches in the United States. We teach chess as a means of improving the academic and social skills of our students, so we emphasize sportsmanship and learning to think. Our students have won more than a dozen national championships (including two team championships for CRS) because we make learning chess fun.
