Coaches,
It's been an adventurous off-season for me, and I'm beyond excited to see everyone at events this upcoming chess season. I hope that your school years are all off to a great start and that your chess teams/programs are coming together. As you look ahead to the season, if you think of anything you need that you don't have, please let me know and I'll do everything I can to help! I've got more freedom with my time these days, so give me stuff to do! 😄
In this issue, you'll find:
- Quick updates about the ICCA website and communications
- a link to the IHSA 24-25 Season Chess Manual (it'll be live when IHSA posts it soon!)
- Information about the ICCA Coach of the Year and ICCA Membership
- A brief call for those interested in Steward and TD Training... Let us know if you have any interest, there's a growing need for folks, and we'd love to see stewards grown from within our ranks!
- and the list of upcoming tournaments for October
For those new to the group, remember to keep this e-mail active because I'll be sending out monthly blasts with information about upcoming events and important news your can use!
Let's have a great season, and feel free to reach out any time!
