Peninsula Chess League - March Results

Tonight we held the 3rd tournament of the Peninsula Chess League, a series of team chess matches between elementary and middle schools in the San Francisco Peninsula area.

Tonight, all matches were 2-round matches with teams of 6 players each.  Here were the results:

  • Fox 1 defeated Ralston, 107-102 on tie-breaks (each team had 6 wins)
  • Baywood defeated Fox 2, 9-3
  • Brittan Acres 1 defeated Arundel, 7-5
  • Brittan Acres 2 defeated Sandpiper, 11-1
In the first round, the top boards of Fox 1 and Ralston battled it out to an exciting finish in a complicated queen and pawn ending where the Fox player ran out of time while the Ralston player had just 3 seconds remaining.

Current league standings (average team ratings in parentheses, followed by win/loss record):
  1. Fox Elementary Team 1 (734.7): 4-2
  2. Foster City Elementary Team 1 (750.3):  2-2
  3. Brewer Island Elementary (632.5):  2-0
  4. Ralston Middle School (690.2):  0-2
  5. Brittan Acres Elementary Team 1:  3-1
  6. Baywood Elementary:  4-0
  7. Arundel Elementary:  0-2
  8. Brittan Acres Elementary Team 2:  2-2
  9. Fox Elementary Team 2:  1-3
  10. Foster City Elementary Team 2 (305.7): 0-2
  11. Sandpiper Elementary:  0-2

(2-round matches are counted as 2 matches in the above records)


The next tournament will be in May.  If you are a parent or coach of a team and are interested in forming a team for your school, contact us at peninsulachess@gmail.com
