BLUNDERCHECK CHESS RIOTS PRESENTS:

Newport News Public Schools
STUDENTS vs FACULTY CHESS TOURNAMENT!

Saturday, March 29
Menchville High School
275 Menchville Rd, Newport News
12 PM - 2 PM, as part of the "March Mania" Event!

The students of Newport News Public Schools will be challenging their faculty to a BATTLE OF THE MINDS!  Will students or staff score the most wins??

The tournament will consist of 3 rounds of chess.  Each game will be a time control of 15 minutes, meaning each player will have 15 minutes on their clock to make all their moves.  If you have never played with a clock, don't worry, we will help you out getting started!  Each win will score 1 point for your team, with a draw scoring 1/2 point and a loss scoring nothing.

The tournament is open to all NNPS students and employees.  The only other requirement is that you know how to play chess!  To help the event go smoother and establish team counts, PLEASE PRE-REGISTER using the button below.  Registration is free, just provide your name, contact info, and enter your grade and school, or "adult" if you are faculty.

Please arrive by 11:45 am for check-in.  Walk-up registration will be accepted up to 11:45 but please pre-register to help us if you know you will be coming!

For those not interested in competing, or if you want to freshen you skills before the match, there will be a chess clinic and playing area at the March Mania event from 10 am - 2 pm.  Come in and learn some chess skills!
