It is CTC’s greatest honor to receive a grant of $1500 from the US Chess Women Committee for the 2022-2023 cycle, as a recognition of its dedicated endeavors to promote girls’ power in chess through its Unruly Queens initiative.
This grant will be equally allocated over two in-person chess festivals in Summer/Fall 2022 and Winter 2023 at the Central Park in NYC. CTC expects to bring together all chess women and girls in the tri-state area and beyond, to celebrate their persistent effort with the game through playing and coaching. Please look out for more details coming up soon.
Back in 2020. The Unruly Queens initiative received its first grant of $2780 from the US Chess Women Committee, which significantly facilitated UQ’s online lectures, camps and tournaments throughout the pandemic. All UQ members would like to thank again the committee for its long-time support and look forward to working together on many future events with a shared mission.
