Manchester October 1/2 term Chess Camp


by David Hardy


CSC's first half term chess camps in Manchester proved to be a great success. Over the 2 days just over 40 children attended the sessions which involved formal coaching plus lots of competitive play. The level of play improved dramatically over the sessions. 

   



The children had the chance to use chess clocks for the first time and some were able to write their games down. They really enjoyed playing on Fritz & Chesster and by the end of the each day everyone wanted to know when the next one would be held.


Next chess camp: Date & details to follow soon. 


We are now coaching in 17 schools throughout Tameside and Manchester.
