On Friday, May 13th, a mini chess tournament was held at the DoJo building near Kamiah on Highway 12 with the Kamiah Homeschool class. 22 students participated.
This was the first tournament done by the Chess Guy since the COVID outbreak that shut down the annual Chess Guy tournaments in our area.
The winners were:
The 5 round Swiss tournament was the capstone to a 4 week chess class requested by Mrs Julie Manley. Interest in Chess among the homeschoolers was spurred on by online play. The Chess Guy was beaten several times in quick games due to the high level of competence members of the class exhibited.
