WSCL is being established to accomplish the mission of growing scholastic chess in our school system. With very few coaches to draw from this would help everyone as a whole. Everyone can be a part of this and we all benefit from the experts.
WSCL - Winchester Scholastic Chess League - Members of the Bluegrass Scholastic Chess Association http://www.bgsca.webs.com; www.bgsca.proboards.com Both are Non-profit. Every school that begins a new program will receive free equipment from the BSCA. Coaches from Winchester Chess Club will instruct from time to time.
Mission - to establish chess clubs / programs in every school located within the Winchester / Clark County DISTRICT .
1). Ensure that each program has a parent / teacher / coach to be a sponsor for meetings at each school during the school day.
2). Facilitate a meeting location to bring these clubs together for training, instruction, preparation and registration for upcoming tournament play.
3). Send the players back to their schools to integrate what they have learned into their programs.
4). Put together a group of parents, coaches, and teachers who will help to communicate for us to the clubs. We want to be an extension of what they are doing at the schools in order to help them grow.
5). Set up local tournaments for our local school clubs. Have a Winchester Scholastic Champion in each section. Set up a points system where this is determined. Have workshops for beginners to advanced players.
To make this work there needs to be a good group of volunteers. We need you. We need the principals at each school to help recruit a sponsor, many of the schools already have one in place, and help in distributing information and collecting as well.
We want to offer this opportunity to every child in the school district. With your help we can grow a scholastic chess program that is the pride of the community.
