Piedmont Tuesday, Spring 2, 2020

Our spring two session will be held online via zoom. A link to the zoom class will be emailed the day before class starts.

BCS offers a Tuesday evening chess class in Piedmont from 5:30 to 7pm every week. 

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 extra seconds 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 to play 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. Children and adults are welcome to enroll in this class.
