This is Pawns to Prodigies Chess Club!

Pawns to Prodigies Chess Club是在奥斯丁华盟的大力支持下,由奥斯丁magnet high school Liberal Arts and Science Academy (LASA)的12年级学生David Gu和11年级学生Benjamin Cai, 还有Kealing Middle School magnet 8年级学生Ethan Gu共同创立的。他们的国象评分都超过1400分, 并都多次在国象比赛中取得前三名的好成绩。David和Benjamin都在奥斯丁长城中文学校先后教授国际象棋。俱乐部旨在把K-12年级的国际象棋爱好者们聚集在一起,切磋棋艺与比赛,并希望以此能为社区提供一个孩子们一起下棋一起成长的长期平台, 以回馈奥斯丁青少年社区。俱乐部已经在2023年的夏天举办了10次(每周一次) 活动, 每次活动包括配对练习, 讲解puzzles, 分组对抗赛等等。秋季俱乐部将来到长城中文学校。我们诚邀对国象有兴趣的孩子们来跟大哥哥们一起下棋和交流。


Pawns to Prodigies Chess Club is a fantastic way for aspiring chess players to increase their own chess level and gain valuable experience. The club will involve chess lessons split into three sections: lecture, workshop, and practice. Pawns to Prodigies Chess Club will also host informal, non-rated chess tournaments, in order to prepare participants for USCF and FIDE chess tournaments.
