Sponsor Mr. Martin
Chess club is for students who understand chess and for those that want to learn. All are welcome to be a part of Chess Club. We typically meet weekly. We will be participating in online tournaments and maybe some over-the-board tournaments this year. This year, we are aiming to compete against other schools.
Panther Nation Chess Club is open to all Berwick High School (BHS) students, regardless of skill level. Are you a skilled player who wants to sharpen your skills? Do you just enjoy playing the game? Or are you a beginner who simply wants to learn how to play the game?
YOU ARE WELCOME TO JOIN!
The Panther Nation Chess Club is about every chess enthusiast getting together with other people who share a common interest in the game of chess. Members will improve critical and analytical thinking skills that are essential to have in the real world. Regardless of skill level, we welcome any person who wants to join.
Playing chess helps to develop many mental skills that are useful in life, such as: logic, strategic and tactical thinking, planning and preparation, and problem-solving. The Panther Chess Club provides an opportunity to simply have fun playing the game and making friendships, while building these skills at the same time.
