Attention to ALL Girls and ALL Parents of Girls :)
We are organizing an All Girls Event, where we'll come together, play chess, have fun and socialize and meet other girls :)
You'll also get to hang out with the FIRST FEMALE GM, GM Susan Polgar.
She is the one of the most amazing woman in chess history,
and you'll be able to meet her, learn from her, talk with her, take pictures with her!
We have planned the event that the games are appealing to all levels:
Lower rated players (under1000 rated) are only playing on Sunday, 5 rounds of G/30 d5 games.
Even if you have not participated in a tournament before, come and try it out!
We have an under 400 rated section that is perfect for you!
For the higher rated players (rated 1000+), we are making this a 2 day event, 5 rounds of G/75 d5, a longer time control,
that hopefully allows them to engage in serious games and fight for the title.
Fun side events include simul, book signing and Q&A, panel discussion and closing the event with a blitz.
We hope to see MANY girls at this event, and show us and the world how amazing girls are,
How amazing GIRL POWER is, and show the boys: there is no crying in chess!!!
