Eight Chess in Motion students played for Jamaica at the Pan-American Youth Championships.

Eight Chess in Motion students travelled with Team Jamaica to the Pan-American Youth Championships, playing against the best young players in the Americas.

What a tournament week looks like

Long rounds, a ticking clock and a new opponent every day. Our players prepared on Saturdays with tournament practice games, opening work and endgame drills.

Proud in green and gold

Win or lose, every game at that level is a lesson. Our students came home with new friends, new ideas and a lot more experience.

Every master was once a beginner.

See more photos from the trip in our gallery, and meet the players on the Champions page.
