REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED AS WE HAVE REACHED THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS!
On Saturday, April 29th, International Chess Academy (ICA) will be hosting the 2nd Annual JL All-Girls Chess Tournament supported by a Sodexo Stop Hunger Foundation Youth Grant. It is open to all school-aged girls, and there will be prizes!
Although entry is free, participants are strongly encouraged to donate a minimum of 5 food/toiletry items such as canned foods, food bars, and toiletries (feminine products, deodorant, and shampoo). Please feel free to donate as many items as possible -- the top 3 donors will be awarded a small prize at the end of the tournament!
All chess materials (boards, clocks, scoresheets) will be provided. In addition, Event Organizer Jessica Lee will be giving a chess lecture to beginner players from 1:20pm to 1:45pm. Doors open for those attending the lecture at 1:00pm. Doors will open for all other players at 1:45pm.
We will have two sections: an unrated section and a USCF rated section. The first round will start at 2pm and all other rounds will start ASAP. The time control is G/30,d5 (30 minutes per person, with a 5 second delay per person).
Registration will close either on Friday, April 21st at 11:59 pm or when we reach our capacity of 30 people. For any questions, contact organizer Jessica Lee at jessllee536@gmail.com
