FNQ Interschool Chess Championships Report Round 2 2018
Date: June 5, 2018 Posted by: Sue Wicks
More than 330 students competed in the second round of the Far North Queensland Interschool Chess Championships on the 31 May here in our Bishop Centre.
We welcomed students from around the region to this giant battle of wits. It was pleasing to note that many TAS students were dignified in victory and defeat, displaying good sportsmanship. All the hard work and preparation from individual study or participation in our chess programs was applied in competition with awesome results.
Special congratulations goes to those students who made their debut.
