sorry for the lack of commentary-- I have to go and look at games now; more later.
Thanks for posting these Elizabeth. From the lack of coverage on the USCF web site, you wouldn't even know that there was an All Girls National taking place. It seems odd to me. Good luck to you and your students!
ReplyDeleteEllen (back in NYC where it feels like summer)
Good Luck to you and your girls in Dallas!
ReplyDeleteWell Ellen, for the record, they mention it here, but it's not exactly prominent. Where would we be without E. Vicary?
ReplyDeletehows everybody doing and how many points does each girl have
ReplyDeleteWhat a happy looking bunch of kids. My daughter is about that age and has no interest in chess at all. But these photos would get her interested, I think, to see these cool, normal, smart girls having fun at a tournament.
ReplyDeleteAll Girls' Nationals Results are posted on USChess.org in a fairly prominent place, but there's no story write-up & just one picture. It looks like section #2 consists of both the under 16 & the under 14 sections combined. Does this mean that there's a sagging participation for mid-teen girls?
ReplyDeleteAre blue chess boards becoming standard now? I'm seeing more and more of them.
ReplyDeleteI like green and brown better.
