Level 1 Chess
You can play, but really you only know how to move the pieces and understand how to win (sort of).
Level 1 is learning the basic principles of openings, middle game, and endgame. We learn many different ways to win (checkmate) and we learn lots of tactics. After this level we can usually beat our mom and dad! Classes always ongoing. Thursday 7:00PM - 8:30PM Saturday A 4:00PM - 5:30PM Please call for availability 0921 762 076 Min |
Level 2 and 3 Chess
After about 60 - 90 hours of level 1 we are ready for more advanced training. At the start of level 2 we are more than ready for tournament play. We learn more about the Openings with opening lines and how to avoid the traps. We learn about planning, calculation, and converting our ideas into action. We
continue with leveled tactics and are introduced to more complicated combinations.
At Level 3 we start memorizing opening lines and study more advanced endgame theories. At level 3 we are usually doing well at tournaments and competing with the best in the country in our age groups.
Classes always ongoing.
