Sixth Graders on Fire

David, Aleem, and Danny
At the tournament held last weekend at CES 70 in the Bronx, our sixth graders posted some impressive results!




Danny Feng won the reserve section in his first week playing in that section. His rating went up almost 400 points.


Other strong performers included Aleem Awan, gio Quinones and David Kim who all went 4-0 in the Novice section.


Shawn Swindell also posted a great performance at the Marshall u1800 tournament by winning all 4 games.




Next tournament will be the winter quads held on Wednesday at 9 am. Any player over 1400 is welcome to come and play in a rated quad

I believe that some of the sixth graders will be future 1600's but for some of them it'll be too much.

all 3 of those boys are in mii class...606....all the boys in my class are in chess except for one but he is taking an interest because of the rest of the boys its contagious. Most of the chess team 6th graders is the 606 boys. The girls have taken an interest alittle bit when all the boys went to nationals. But the girls stick to cards games like spit, BS, and Uno..hehe
