Chess Jam 2002 FAQ
I'm in 3rd grade, and it says the Junior section is for 4th through 8th grades. Can I play? Please?
Students below 4th grade may play in the Junior section if they don't mind tough competition and can write down their moves.Seven rounds? When do we eat lunch?
True, most Saturday tourneys have five rounds, with a break for lunch. At Chess Jam we have a short break around lunch time, but we've found that with seven rounds, it usually turns out that one of your games ends quickly while someone elses goes the full distance (one hour). That would be a good time to eat! Concessions will be available, but you may want to bring a healthy sack lunch.I don't even know how to play chess. Is it hard?
Easy to learn, hard to master. Learn, and then come play with us! Have a friend show you! Or read the rules here. Only three things you need to know to play: 1.The starting position. 2.How the six different pieces move. 3.How the game ends. (Get the King!)I'm not a good chessplayer. Should I play in Chess Jam?
Sure! Come jam with the rest of us patzers. We're all learning, and you don't have to be a Grandmaster to have fun at chess. Besides, the Swiss pairings system will match you with opponents of equal ability (after a few rounds). And just think of how much better you'll be after a day of chess jamming.Do I have to write down the moves?
Yes, scorekeeping is required at Chess Jam. To learn how, have a teacher or friend show you, or go here. Hey, it's good for you! One of the best ways to improve is to review your games after a tournament. (Besides being able to show your friends the awesome move you made that clinched the game.) Also, learning chess notation opens you to the whole wide world of chess literature. So, bring a pen or pencil, scoresheets will be provided.If I haven't taken my hands off of the chess piece yet, can I change my mind?
In a rated tournament like this one, if you even touch a chess piece, you must move it! And if you touch an opponent's piece, you must capture it! So sit on your hands until you know what you want to do. If a piece needs to be centered or adjusted, you may do so by first saying "I adjust".Will we use chess clocks? How do they work?
Yes, we'll use clocks, although we may not have enough for all boards. Chess clocks are a great invention. They keep slow players from slowing and losing players from stalling. Here's how it works: After your move, you hit the button nearest you on the chess clock. Your timer stops, and your opponent's timer begins. In this tournament each player gets either 30 minutes (Junior division) or 45 minutes (H.S. division), thus ensuring that no game goes over 60 minutes (or 90 minutes). If a player uses up all his time, it's a loss just like checkmate. If a game starts without a clock, we'll put a clock on the game, with the time equally elapsed, as one becomes available.How do school team awards work?
The team scoring used will be similar to cross-country meet scoring. In each section the best four results from a single school will be tallied and compared with other schools. Efforts are made not to pair players from the same school.Will concessions be available?
Hot dogs, pop and a few munchies will be available, and The Chess House will have chess clocks, boards, books, software and more for perusal and purchase.Is the Junior division an Elementary State Qualifier tournament? Tell me about State.
The largest chess tournament in the state every year is not the Washington Open, the Seafair Open or the State High School Team Championships, it's the State Elementary Championships. Last year it was held in Vancouver and saw 741 players compete. And consider this: to attend, players had to first qualify by posting a winning record in a qualifying tournament.To qualify for Elementary State, a Washington student "in grades 1-6 must score at least 3/5 in a WSRS-rated Scholastic Chess Tournament in Washington State with at least 32 players per section, and three or more schools participating. Players in Grade K need to score 2/5 in a divison which includes K-2 players." So, for 6th graders and below, the Junior section will act as a qualifier for Elementary State, though it'll be harder than most as it includes 7th and 8th graders.
This school year's Washington State Elementary Chess Championships will be held April 13, 2002 in Olympia, Washington. (For more info contact Jon Licht.)
