Meet the Team from St. Barnabas School. It is a good example of the perfect combination of a very supportive principal, dedicated coach and enthusiastic kids. They meet during lunch hours as well as twice a month on Saturdays.As always, chess stretching before the tough games... Frank Tu, chess and Karate pro conducts the warm up morning routine.

Handshakes.. before the games begin..

and then as usual, concentration...

...focusing, taking time to think about the next move....

... evaluating the situation on the board ....


... and of course enjoyment of playing this great game !
