Walnut Creek Friday Night - Winter, 2020

No class on February 7

The Berkeley Chess School offers beginner, intermediate and advanced chess  instruction at Grace Presbyterian Church, 2100 Tice Valley Boulevard, Walnut Creek, CA 94595

Intermediate and Advanced classes are 90 minutes in duration, from 5:30-7:00 p.m. The intermediate and advanced classes are followed by an optional rated tournament from 7:00-8:00 p.m., which gives the students an opportunity to gain tournament experience. Since the tournament is rated, all students must have a current USCF membership in order to participate. You can pay or renew your USCF membership at http://www.berkeleychessschool.org/uscf-membership/

We offer a Novice chess class at this location from 5:30-6:30 . There is a separate registration page for this class. No USCF membership is required for the Novice class. 

Please note:  If a child who starts out in the Novice class is promoted during the class series, to Intermediate level, he or she will need to get the USChess Federation membership at that time, and the class fee also increases, because intermediate and above classes are 1.5 hours long plus the tournament, instead of one hour long.
