2023 Immacolata Summer Camp - July 10th - 14th

Chess Summer Camps are the perfect way to introduce the game of chess to new students, deepen understanding of the game for established players, or offer intensive instruction for aspiring chess masters. A National Master will provide daily lessons, puzzles, and play to help guide students through each session. Additionally, certified chess instructors will assist with lessons and classroom activities.

Instruction offers a solid basic foundation, emphasizing the fundamental skills needed to begin a lifetime of learning in chess, including:

• Proper piece and board set-up
• Algebraic Notation (Chess Language)
• Principles of Opening Play

Instructors will provide coaching to build on these skills and cover more advanced ideas, including:

• Tactics
• Strategy
• Middlegame Planning
• Endgame Technique

Each camp provides opportunities to practice these skills in a variety of activities and workshops with classmates under the observation of a National Master and experienced Chess Instructors from the Chess Club.
