Description
The Berkeley Chess School offers a Tuesday evening chess class in Piedmont
from 5:30 to 7:00pm every week throughout the school year. The format
will be a half hour lecture by instructor Stephen Shaughnessy followed
by a USCF-rated tournament game with a time control of G25/d5 (meaning
each player has 25 minutes to complete their moves plus 5 extraseconds
per move). All ages welcome, although the lectures will be geared
towards experienced players of strength 500-1500 USCF.
Stephen Shaughnessy has taught chess classes in Piedmont schools for over a
decade and has created this class to allow Piedmont residents a place
toplay rated games and expand their chess skills. Players can also drop
in for just the rated games from 6-7pm for a fee of $10 per game. Prizes
for each six-week tournament will be determined by how many people
participate.
