Silver Knights Chess is smart fun for schools & kids

ImageWelcome to the website of the Silver Knights Chess Company! We partner with Elementary schools, Middle schools, and community centers to teach chess to children. We teach students of all different levels, from total beginners to national champions. We also run scholastic tournaments, where students can compete both individually and as members of their school’s team. For the more advanced scholastic chessplayers, we organize monthly adult chess tournaments to allow for stronger competition. We currently teach classes and run tournaments and camps in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and Maryland.

We also offer online chess videos through our Online Training Center. Instructors include several National and International Masters.

Tournament Results - Virginia Team Tournament
Written by Adam Weissbarth   

At the Silver Knights Team Tournament in Vienna, there were close to a hundred competitors from a dozen different schools.  In the end, the winning team came from Wolftrap Elementary.  Not only did they win all four matches as a team, they won fifteen out a possible sixteen individual games!  St Leo the Great took second place, with Jack Dunbar who won all his games.  Jack Vogt led Franklin Sherman to a third place finish with a perfect score, as did Alan Kittell at Virginia Run.  There was a huge tie for fifth place, but Lee's Corner emerged on tiebreaks as the leader of a pack that included Stafford Homeschool, Haycock, Virginia Run B, St Leo B, OLGC, and OLGC B, who all tied with 2.5 matches won.  Pictures and team standings below the fold.
