All Girls
Each year, the Berkeley Chess School offers two All Girls Tournaments as a way to further encourage and support girls in their interest and enthusiasm for chess.
Visit our photo gallery to see more images from past Girls Tournaments.
The next All Girls tournament will be held on Saturday, March 6, 2010.
Sign up for this event.
Our chess tournaments are never elimination tournaments, so every girl will play a minimum of three games. The All Girls Tournament uses the Swiss format which means you play someone with the same score as you every round. The system is "self-correcting". For the girls winning every game, each round will be more challenging than the round before. If you start out losing, each round should become easier and easier.
Every student participating will receive a medal.
