Welcome! This site is where I provide young female chess players with updates on important chess news as well as upcoming girl's tournaments. It is also a site where young players and their parents / coaches can productively discuss or ask questions about various chess issues! Your comments are welcome and appreciated! *** WIN WITH GRACE, LOSE WITH DIGNITY! TM 2012 Susan Polgar © ***

SPGI participant Emily Nguyen scored 6/6 at U.S. Junior
Emily Nguyen of Austin, Texas, scored 6/6 to win the U.S. Junior Under 8 Championship (Open section with both Boys and Girls) while breaking 1,500 at the same time!
She is now at Texas Tech University to participate in the 2010 SP Girl's Invitational. She was only rated just a little more than 1,000 last year at the 2009 SP National Invitational for Girls. She jumped approximately 500 points in just one year!
