Below are tournament details. Just RSVP to me via email (Please do not register on your own) and I will register your child. You can pay me at the event. Please RSVP... Remember, many of our kids are last year's (co) defending state champions! This year it would be fun to try to win it on our own! The kids are on a great run, and not only is this a memorable tournament for them, it is a heck of a lot of fun.

2009 WISCONSIN SCHOLASTIC CHESS CHAMPIONSHIPS - DETAILS
March 21-22

The Wisconsin Scholastic Chess Championship is a six-section event open to any Wisconsin high school, middle school, junior high school or elementary school team or individual. Players of all abilities are encouraged to participate.
Please note that USCF membership is not required for this event nor is it USCF rated. USCF ratings will be used for pairing purposes if the player has one. The Junior Varsity, K-8 and K-5 sections will play six rounds. LDMS will have a K-5 and K-8 team.

Game Times: Junior Varsity, K-8 and K-5

Saturday:
Round 1 - 9:30 - Please be there by 830 if you can! We are staying overnight on Fri nite, or you can choose to drive early Sat. Please make sure to FEED your child between 11 and 1145. Limit sugar intake (the corresponding "crash" can affect a child mentally during the longer games). Protein is recommended.
Round 2 - Noon
Round 3 - 2:30 - I recommend a small snack between round 3 and 4, to maintain energy until dinner time!
Round 4 - 5:00 - Expect to be back to the hotel around 7 or 730- remember our kids need to play slow! We can order pizza back to the hotel pool area (this worked GREAT last time), or go somewhere. The Red Robin is nearby.

Sunday:
Round 5 - 9:00
Round 6 - 12:30- Games should be done around 230, then the awards at 3-ish... they're pretty quick. Should get back to Milwaukee by 6 or 630 I would guess.
