Angeleno Students at the 2019 American Open

Angeleno Students at the 2019 American Open

Dec 9, 2019

We are so proud of how so many of our students performed at the prestigious American Open held in Costa Mesa, CA November 28 – December 1, 2019 even though it was a very long drive each day back and forth for so many participants.
Traditionally it is one of the largest events of the year in the Southern California, attracting a huge crowd that competes in dozen of sections, sub-sections and varying time controls.

We will just mention few that either won or placed in the top 3 in their respective sections or performed extremely well.

Nathan Thomas: Varsity K-3 Champion with a perfect score of 5 out of 5!

Zion Qu: 3rd place in 4th Grade Booster with a wonderful 9.5 out of 12 score.

Yash and Tanish Vora: both placing only half a point behind the tournament winners in the prestigious Under 2000 section and both reaching and breaking the coveted 1860 USCF barrier and gaining more than 215 rating points together.

We hope to share more success stories in hopes of inspiring new young talent to study and compete more.

Chess in Schools

Chess in Schools

For the past 15 years, we have specialized in starting and maintaining chess clubs at Private, Charter and Public schools. Classes are taught weekly by a professional instructor and are usually 1 hour in length. Many clubs begin with the basic level and slowly grow as students gain knowledge and more students decide to join. We strive to strike a balance between making our chess classes fun where students enrich their knowledge of chess while enjoying the experience. Once students are ready, they can start participating in chess competitions and tournaments. We work with each school to tailor a chess club that best fits their needs.

Times: After school, “0” period or lunchtime sessions available.
Class Duration: 1 hour, 1.5 hour and 2 hour sessions available.
Session Duration: Sessions can be scheduled on an 8-week, trimester or semester basis.
Cost: We work with each school to make chess lessons available to and affordable by their students.
