End of the junior tuition classes

Attendances at the junior tuition classes have dwindled since Christmas and for the last two sessions there were more organisers present than students. I have therefore decided reluctantly to end the classes about a month earlier than originally intended. I should like to thank Sue, Andrew and Robin for the help that they have given me.

NB Wednesdays are still available to adult members but there will no longer be a guaranteed presence for anyone just turning up. Still useful for arranging your tournament games though and still some league matches to be played.  Sue

Tuition classes for juniors

I am planning to start free tuition classes for juniors from about the ages of 7-14 at the Avenue Bridge Club on Wednesday 1st October from 6-7 p.m. It is hoped that these classes will then continue on a weekly basis until March next year. The classes are intended for young players, who have had some experience of playing friends at home or at school or have entered competitions in connection with the Sussex Junior Chess organisation. It is not necessary for juniors to be brilliant players and I am expecting a wide range of ability. However, I am afraid that it would be difficult to integrate anyone into the group who does not know the rules. Although the classes will almost certainly start on 1st October, I have to obtain the usual CRB clearance first.

Enquiries can be made using the box at the bottom of the Membership page of the club website. Please give name, age and chess experience of child.  Sue
