Congratulations to our latest and 13th CCL graduate, Abhi Ramaswamy.
- Abhi earned his graduation at the Ohio Chess Congress, last weekend, coming in 2nd place in the U-2000 section (details on this tournament will be posted in a couple of days)
- Abhi has just started 9th grade.
- This Who’s Who chess list has been growing with great talent at an increasing fast rate. Abhi has worked extremely hard for this honor, as has all of our CCL graduates. They have all learned the value of perseverance and hard work.
- What is a CCL graduate? It is an honorary degree that we give to any CCL player who has worked their way through the ranks while in CCL and has made a USCF experts rating (>= 2000). This group is becoming a who’s who of the top young talent around. It entitles them to lifetime membership in CCL, based on good behavior, without the requirements of taking lessons. They are allowed to receive email spam from me for the rest of their lives!!
