NCC QUALIFIER #3 - PRIMARY AND K-1 FINALS
NCC QUALIFIER #3 - ELEMENTARY FINAL
NCC QUALIFIER #3 - JH AND HS
Thanks for another great Scholastic event! Things ran pretty smooth today. We still had a few kids who left the tournament screen and missed a pairing, but that was the only issue we're aware of. Just always remember to leave the tournament console/fast chess open because if you are not there, chesskid thinks you left and doesn't give you your game. We've set the date for the All-Girls City Championship to be January 30, 2021. Ladies, save the date if you are listed as a top girl. This will not affect the regular City Championship set for January 8-10, 2021, so girls can play both if they qualify for both.
Here is the prize list, congrats to all the winners, full results in links:

2020 Scholastic City Qualifier #2 Primary and K-1 Results
Qualifier #1-
I am very proud of everyone! All kids made it into the tournament, only a couple got in late and we just had some minor issues to keep in mind for the next events:
1. Remember NEVER use the APP. You are not able to do tournaments on the APP - must use a browser like Safari or Chrome.
2. There are a lot of distracting bells and whistles on ChessKid, a wandering mouse can take you out of the tournament, make you accidentally resign, mouse slip and move the wrong piece - this is a game of concentration and you need even more of that online!
3. Tie-Breaks will officially be made using Modified-Median, Solkoff and Cumulative just as we always do - so the ChessKid tie-breaks are not official. Now today, they were both the same, but may not be the same in the future.
The attached documents are the final results - again, super proud of everyone! Many thanks to Coach Tiffany and Mr. Prosser and, of course, all the parents that had to learn some new stuff this week too!
Best,
Coach Todd
