31 teams, approximately 140 players have participated in the 2019 Japan Club/Team Championship hosted by National Chess Society of Japan (NCS) on September 21-22, 2019. An annual event where all chess minds from all over the country come in and compete and try to win the prize.
3 TBCC teams are entering the Club/Team Championship 2019 for the fourth time as an official member club. It’s an awesome unbelievable achievement for our captains, adults, middle school and elementary kids to play all 6 rounds in two days!
Tokyo Bilingual Chess Club team B, A & C ranked No. 15, 25 & 28, respectively, in the final standings.

From beginners to advancing tournament players our goal is that all TBCC players can experience both the job & significant social/educational benefits of learning and playing chess. Thank you, Team Captains! They encouraged their team always to follow the spirit of the highest sportsmanship!
Congratulations to all of the winners this year. A prize money was awarded to the Tokyo Bilingual Chess Club Team B as a second place in an A class category. All TBCC kids have got the special "Gambatta" prize as well.
The Club Championship had a good balance of focus and fun. The students were all there to learn, but also socialize and enjoy themselves. We are all really proud of the heart and effort of all these kids! Thanks to all the parents and coaches who support scholastic chess in Japan!
