Greater Princeton AYLUS Promotes Youth Volunteerism with Chess Tournaments & Classes (86th) in October 2022

In October, the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA) Sports Committee continued its tournament fundraiser along with weekly chess classes at the West Windsor Public Library.

GPA Sports Committee has resumed in person chess classes at the West Windsor Branch Library. Every Tuesday from 5:15 to 6:15 pm, GPA holds a beginner class open to everyone in the activity room at the library. This week, it was the first class and we introduced ourselves, and taught how to set up the chess board with a creative story as well as the point value of the pieces. Everyone had a great time learning how to set up a chess board and competing with other students. With more people joining the ABC Chess Club, even more kids have the opportunity to play quality chess against other curious learners.

Our Chess Club’s next tournament will be hosted on Saturday, November 5th, starting at 7PM EST. The time control will remain the same (G10+5) and everyone is welcome. All ages can come and compete with their skills and have fun playing games of chess.

GPA Volunteers: Sarah Yan (10/25, 1.5 hrs), Erick Yan (10/25, 1.5 hrs), George Chen (10/25, 1.5 hrs), Henderson Han (10/25, 1.5 hrs), and more.

GPA member Eddy Tian and more taught chess to autism kids at limitless behavior services (10/26, 2 hrs).
