Spring will be here before we know it. And with the spring comes the Hales Corners Chess Challenge XII! Goddesschess will once again be sponsoring prizes for the chess femmes for this fantastic twice-yearly event that has quickly become a spring and autumn tradition in southeast Wisconsin. We will be implementing an entirely new prize structure that we hope will encourage all of the femmes who have played in the Reserve section in prior HCCC to register and play in the Open. As an additional incentive, Goddesschess will pay the entry fee to HCCC XIII for the top female finisher in each section. Stay tuned for further details as we get closer to the tournament date.
