Our journey at Tri-Bridges Chess Club continues to take us to exciting new places. While we still meet every Tuesday at 666 Exton Commons for friendly games and growth, our players are reaching incredible new heights on the national stage. In our May 2026 issue, you’ll celebrate the massive achievements of Vivaash and Gal, our brand-new National Section Champions! We also recap a thrilling Easter weekend in Atlantic City where our members showcased their skills, including a standout performance by Riaan Gandhe, who secured an impressive $600 second-place prize. But we aren’t just celebrating tournament victories; we’re diving deep into the art of the game itself. This month features exclusive coverage of our recent simultaneous exhibition with Grandmaster Bryan Smith and a deep dive into our "Chess Master in History" section featuring Adolf Anderssen and his legendary "Immortal Game." You’ll also find a review of the classic Chess Tactics for Students, brain-bending puzzles that challenge you to place your own pieces to find a mate, and full details on the upcoming Second Exton Open with its $5,000 guaranteed prize fund. Plus, don’t miss the flyers for our special Mother’s Day tournament and the birthday blitz event for our editor, Azim. Give it a read and see how much our community is learning and growing!
