NSWJCL Country Secondary Schools Teams Chess KO Rd4

On Thursday 27th June, four of our top Chess representatives participated in another round (R4) of the NSWJCL's Country Secondary Schools Teams Chess Knockout tournament.

We travelled to Hunter Christian School who were wonderful hosts. Our top four HSPA Chess representatives were able to press home an impressive 4-0 result with victories on all four boards!

We look forward to our Round 5 match-up as we try to go one or two rounds better than last year and win this section of the draw (Hunter Region).

We also look forward to upcoming HSPA Chess events:

  • A workshop for 30 of our Chess enthusiasts from Primary and Secondary with the titled and Australian National Girls Champion Kashish Christian, coming up next term. 
  • This should provide great inspiration for the annual trip to Strathfield for the 2019 NSW Girls Chess Challenge as well as hopefully broadening skills on the board for all our chess-playing students.
