Bishops - Spring One 2026

The Bishops class is for advanced players.

Immerse yourself in the exciting world of chess! Chess is fun and can be learned quickly and easily! Studies have found that chess helps improve test results in reading, science, and math, and produces growth in critical cognitive skills. Beyond academia, chess influences social behavior including self esteem, respect for others, patience, and good sportsmanship. And did we mention: it’s FUN!

The Berkeley Bishops is an elite team of players that will train together, attend private matches against other teams, travel to tournaments together. The goal of the Bishops is to create a group of friends that want to improve their rating and join a team of other players interested in more than just our regular after school & BFN sessions.
