Chess Club
Fridays, 3:45 to 5:00, Room S205, Sponsor: Mr. Prothro
As the name suggests, Lowell Chess Club is a community for anyone who enjoys playing or wants to learn chess. As a club, we have had impressive accomplishments: we were the top U-1200 team at USATW (where we drew a team from UC Berkeley) and won 1st place at National Chess Day Youth Tournament. We have produced players who won competitions such as the 2019 CalChess State Blitz Championship and players capable of beating International Masters. While participation opportunities are compromised or cancelled for many other clubs, we are able to continue attending online chess tournaments and use Zoom and various chess apps to recreate in-person meetings. These casual meetings are opportunities to play chess with your friends and improve by learning from each other. In addition, we are offering tutoring services for anyone interested in learning chess. We look forward to seeing you!
