Fellow BCF Scholastic players,
Even though we had a smaller group (17 players) for the August
Scholastics, it was still enough to field all three Sections - 14 &
Under, 8 & Under, and Non-Member. Great congratulations to Tye
Moore who not only took home the 1st Place Trophy in the 14 & Under
Section but did so bouncing back from a tough go in the Charles Drafts
the day before. Tye showed an inspiring example of perseverance and
skill this weekend, and I look forward to seeing him in future
tournaments.
We were glad to have four non-Member players and hope that all
will join USCF soon and compete in the regular Sections. No better
feeling in chess at the beginning of your chess career than that first
rated tournament.

14 & Under:
1st: Tye Moore
2nd: Siddharth Kurup
3rd Place: Mahad Sohail
8 & Under:
