1^st Kids for Chess Camp 2006

The 1st Kids for Chess Camp turned out to be a big success especially with the children enjoying themselves while learning or improving their game of chess. The three-day Chess Camp (December 5 to 7) which saw around 70 children taking part in it, was divided into 4 different levels. The 4 levels were tailored for the Absolute Beginner, the Beginner, The Intermediate Player and The Aspiring Tournament Player.

The 7 instructors at the camp included International Master Jimmy Liew, National Master Choo Min Wang, S. Balen (FIDE 1960), Seto, Cornelius Bong, Doris Wong & Collin Madhavan (FIDE 2220). Special thanks goes out to Jax Tham, Dr Wahid Karim (RSC) and Sekolah Sri Garden, who were the main sponsor for the event.
