Chess Team Season Commences
November 26, 2014
The Chess Team’s season has started, and so has signups. Chess Team is a winter sport with all the rules and regulations any sport at SHS has. It is a no-cut team with ranked players and competitions.
“I’m fairly good at chess. I really like strategy games, so I’m into chess, and look forward to the social opportunities that will come of it also.” freshman Trevor Welch said.
The usual athletic fee of 75$ accompanies membership. Chess Team is run by Dr. Keith Brackenridge, and practice will begin on Monday, October 20th. Matches are in the GMC region.
“I learned to play chess from my Grandpa in Poland. He was unable to do sports besides this, so it was a great way to bond with him.” freshman Adam Meller said.
“I’m on the top five ranked players of our team, and so far we’ve done really well,” freshman Victor Lim said.

During the movie, she undergoes friendship and bullying problems. But, by the end of the movie, she solves her problems and makes peace with the bullies. “Almost everyone has watched [“Mean Girls”] once, if not a couple times. It is just a go-to when you’re with your girls,” said Debasmita Kanungo, 11.](https://shsleaf.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/weissblogmeangirlsphoto-300x424.jpg)
