Ferndale Elementary Spring Tournament FAQ
How do I get to Skyline Elementary?
Directions: Take I-5 Exit 262. Go west about one mile to downtown Ferndale. Turn right on 3rd, go one block and take the next left onto Vista Drive. At the next stop sign (one mile up the hill) Skyline Elementary is on the left, at the Vista/Thornton intersection. (If perchance the Skyline parking lot fills, go 100 yards back down Vista Drive to park in the Vista Middle School lot.)I don't know how to play chess. Is it hard?
Easy to learn, hard to master. Now's a great time to learn! Have a friend show you! Or read (then print) 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?
Sure! Come enjoy the F.E.S.T. 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 play.I've never played in a tournament. I'm nervous! What do I do?
Have fun and enjoy the competition! You might check out Hey Kids, It's Tournament Time!, a helpful article by the Lakeridge Elementary Chess Club in Seattle.Do I have to write down the moves?
No! But it's a smart thing to do, and you will see some players doing it. If you want 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.
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".How many games will I play?
All players will play five rounds, win or lose. With Swiss pairings, there's no elimination, and you'll always play someone with the same score as yourself (with a few exceptions). So for example, if in the first three rounds you have one win and two losses, you'll play someone else with one win and two losses in the 4th round.Will we use chess clocks? How do they work?
Yes, we'll use clocks in the upper section and on the upper boards in the lower section, as they are available. 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 will get 30 minutes, thus ensuring that no game goes over an hour. If a player uses up all 30 minutes, it's a loss just like checkmate. If a game without a clock goes really long, the TD (tournament director) may place a clock on that game. So bring a chess clock if you have one, but if you don't, that's okay.
Will concessions be available?
Yes. Thank you Mountain View Chess Club! So you can bring either a sack lunch, or lunch money.How do school team awards work?
The team scoring used will be similar to cross-country meet scoring. That is, in each section, the best four results from a single school will be tallied and compared with other schools. Efforts will be made in the early rounds not to pair players from the same school.Can I turn in the entry form and fee to my teacher?
No, all advance entries must be mailed in, with a postmark of March 30 or before.Is this tourney 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 Washington State Elementary School Championships. Last year it was held in Bellevue and saw over 1000 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-3 players." The F.E.S.T. is a qualifier for State. A list of qualifying players can be found at the WHSCA website.
This school year's Washington State Elementary Chess Championships will be held in our area for the first time ever. It will be held at the Northwest Washington Fairgrounds in Lynden on Saturday, April 23, 2005.
