Saturday and Sunday November 1st – 2nd
(with extended times, now going until 5:30 PM)
This is the second in our series of Tag-Team chess camps. There will be two International Master chess coaches giving the lessons, moving from group to group. There is a greater value in this approach as the students can learn chess from two different accomplished coaches, who each have their own perspective on the game. It is the CCL way to provide the very best in everything that we do. In these camps, there will be a U-1400 and an O-1400 group, with 6 periods across the two days. Please pack a lunch to eat during a game playing break in the middle of the camp. These camps are only open to CCL, Pre-CCL, and the Mulligan Chess Clubs members.
Space is limited to these camps and they are both first come, first serve.
Date: November 1st – 2nd (Saturday – Sunday)
Time: 9:30 – 5:30, total of 16 hours (two hours longer than previous camps)
Place: Ramada Plaza Hotel and Convention Center; 4900 Sinclair Road; Columbus, Ohio 43229
Salon AB and Salon C
At every chess camp, we try to improve on the one before it. At the last camp, the number one concern was the short time control for the tournament games (which start at a prescribed position). I believe we had 10 rounds of g/10 games. At this camp we will be having 8 rounds of g/20 d/5. Although there will be two less games, the games will take a couple of more hours to complete, so we added two hours to the length of the camp so as not to effect the total amount of lecture time. We also changed from 6 sessions to 4 sessions. Since this camp is on endgames, a moderate level of depth into these topics may not be enough for a significant gain. By extending the lecture times on these topics we feel much more comfortable that the students will leave this camp as significantly better endgame players than when they entered. We also have a small period at the end of each camp where the students can come to the coaches with individual concerns and questions. We will keep our tag-team approach from the last camp, where both coaches work with both groups, which we felt was very effective. We value your feedback in helping us to continue to improve our processes.
