We have always had the honor of becoming a CCL graduate, which includes a lifetime membership to CCL , based on good behavior, without the need to take lessons from CCL. Anything that CCL has to offer (newsletter, library, team participation, etc. will always be available to you). You are also welcome to a free CCL graduation shirt. See https://cclchess.com/graduate-shirt/ for details. I decided to change the requirements for this accomplishment so that it is not totally rating based, but is time/rating based. The old graduation rule was getting your rating over 2000 when in CCL, In the new criteria you must be an active student at the time of graduation and for the whole time before the graduation. You also need to meet any of the following requirements:
- 1 year in CCL and earning a rating of 2000
- 4 years in CCL and earning a rating of 1900
- 5 years in CCL and earning a rating of 1800
I believe that these new rules will make it easier for more of our dedicated students to earn a CCL graduation. I will not know if you meet any of these requirement unless you notify me.
As a result of the new requirements we have 3 new graduates:
Viktor Mishkin = 5+/1800+ Viktor is a 7th grader. Besides chess, he likes to play soccer, tennis, and badminton. Also Viktor is a pretty good swimmer and voracious reader. See an annotated game of his at https://cclchess.com/ccl-games/
Dakshin Pisini = 5+/1800+
Rohan Padhye = 4+/1900+
