Camp Director, CM Alex Averbukh, has hosted a summer one-day chess camp on Saturday, July 22nd, 2023. TBCC would like to thank all our parents for supporting scholastic chess for their children by allowing them to be immersed in our instructional, fun chess camp at Osaki, Shinagawa, Tokyo. 

Five children grade 1 to 3 were welcome to start off their summer vacation by attending this fun-filled event! There were chess instruction, Kendama, games, food and outdoor activities.

Campers from various schools in Tokyo and from New York City come to TBCC in order to improve their chess skills in English and to enjoy a variety of other cognitive and physical activities. It is always a challenge when faced with a class of learners all keen to hone their chess skills or to learn the game of chess, to come up with activities that engage them and at the same time cater to their varying ability levels…

Small class sizes and top notch instructors make this camp a great opportunity to hone kid's game.

We hope this camp thrives for years to come. It was created to provide full-day care so that parents can leave their children for the day with confidence that camp will be fun and educational. 

Kids got a Crispy Cream donut and a gift to enjoy. 

Kids left a little stronger and more confident, more comfortable at camp, and knowing that TBCC will always be their home of chess where they can come back when they are grown up. It’s been an amazing session, one that we will all remember fondly.

Looking forward to having you all in the Shiny Open Chess Tournament on August 26, 2023!

A huge thank you to everyone for all of their help and support!
