WEIBEL GIRLS CHESS TEAM CONTINUES ITS WINNING STREAK

15 of the 23 Weibel Girls that Competed 

Once again, the Weibel Girls Chess Team proved itself the best in California. Our girls won all the Elementary School sections at the CalChess State Girls Age Level Championships on March 3, 2018 in Berkeley--5-7 year olds, 8-9 year olds and 10-11 year olds. This year's Girls State Championships pulled more players than any other previous CalChess Girls States.  One hundred and five girls participated. Sarah McCarty-Snead, the organizer, and Bryon Doyle the Chief Tournament Director receive my Kudos for a job well done.

 

The largest girls event in CalChess, the Sojourner Truth Tournament for Girls in 2001, drew 167 girls. Weibel Chess girls cleaned-up at that one as well.  We are looking forward to the All-Girls Nationals in Chicago on April 20-22.  Our goal is to win our eighth national all-girls title.
