KCC To Sponsor 1 USATE Entry
Thanks to a contribution from a benefactor, the Kenilworth Chess Club will be sponsoring 1 full U.S. Amateur Team East entry next month.
To
be eligible for the sponsorship, teams must have 4 Kenilworth CC
members and include Kenilworth in its name (in a non-derogatory way).
For help in forming a KCC team, reply via email or see an
officer (Bob S., Joe R. Geoff, Mike G. or John) during the next 2-3
meetings.
Last year, the Kenilworth Niners (Mark K., Greg, Geoff & John) tied for 1st among U1900 teams.
One more thing... tonight is your last chance to enter the Club Championship.

KCC Championship
The Club Championship started last Thursday. I had not played any slow games of chess in a while and I was feeling rusty. Fortunately, I got an easy pairing and I was able to take the full point.
I hope to see you at the tournament.
