Hi kids (and parents)!
My name is Bryan Smith. I am a chess coach with Silver Knights, and an international master. I taught the advanced class in Bryn Mawr, and plan to teach more classes in the fall. As you might know, I am playing in the U.S. Championship, which starts Tuesday. I qualified for it by winning the U.S. Masters last year. For a long time it wasn't clear whether there would be a U.S. Championship this year, when the main sponsors backed out. But new sponsors emerged in Oklahoma, and that is where I am headed.

The 2007 U.S. Chess Championship will be held May 15-23 in Stillwater, Oklahoma. One of our coaches, International Master Bryan Smith, is part of the 36-player field. This is the first time Bryan has qualified for the U.S. Championships, and he begins the tournament as the 26th-seeded player so it will be quite a challenge! All of us here at Silver Knights wish him good luck at the tournament. Check back for continuing updates from Bryan during the tournament. You can follow his games live here.

Congratulations to Silver Knights Coach Bryan Smith, who took first place in the Greater Philadelphia Open held from April 20-22 at Haverford College. On his way to a 4.5/5 score, Bryan defeated a class A player and three National Masters before agreeing to a short last-round draw that guaranteed him clear first place.
