Muskego High School has its own chess team, which exists as part of the overall club. We play in the SMCA - Scenic Moraine Chess Association. Two years ago, we won it. Last year, we took third. The TOP TEN high school players by rating (starting with USCF rating, then continuing by using the SMCA rating after that) have first priority for the 10 boards each week in our match.
Generally, there are extra matches kids can come and play even though they may not be on one of the top 10 boards. Anyone in 7th grade or above may play for the team, but preference is given to a player who attends Muskego High School. In general, we will try to give the board to an MHS player unless we have an open board in which case 7th/8th graders will be invited.
Dan Gomoll and Mark Seghers will help this year with the high school team. Let us know if you have any questions, or you can post them here.
I have updated the Chess Calendar (see the right of this website) with all our matches for the year. The first event is the pre-season tournament at Arrowhead on 12/6. Our first high school match is then on Dec 9th visiting St. John's Military Academy. Matches run on Tuesdays after school, from 12/9 thru 2/24 with a break for the holidays.
