Library’s free chess lessons aim to strengthen players

Library’s free chess lessons aim to strengthen players: Children who gathered Saturday in Ray Martinez’s classroom at the Brownsville Public Library were there to learn battle strategy.
Zeny Cruz is simply winning chess matches and is quickly become an Elementary chess powerhouse. Today, Zeny won all her chess matches in the K-3 section of the Veteran's HS Chess Tournament. She was today's Co-Champion and increased her USCF Rating to 749 after only four tournaments.
Outstanding Job Zeny!! I am so PROUD of you.
This 3rd grader will be competing in the K-5 section at the Russell chess tournament. She is training for Nationals next year.

Today's Co-Champion in the K-1 section of the Veteran's HS Chess Tournament was the amazing Ezra Rincones. Ezra won every chess match today and increased his USCF Rating to 894. This little 1st grader will soon be competing in the K-5 section
at future chess tournaments. Awesome Job Ezra.
It's an joy to be your chess coach.
