End of the year Scholarships
OCBCF Chess Scholarship
In an effort to promote both chess in the Coastal Bend area and further the academic pursuits of our players, we are announcing the start of a scholarship program. Over the course of this year’s scholastic chess tournaments, we will be keeping a running tally of participation and achievement. A point will be kept for the year. Because we believe in the importance of community service we will be also be allowing points for students who volunteer their time teaching and mentoring in chess programs at any school or chess club event.
