Welcome to the CCL Chess School!Shourjya Ghosh becomes the 24th CCL graduatehttp://cclchess.com/elton-cao-becomes-the-23rd-ccl-graduate-2-2/Congratulations to our latest and 24th CCL graduate, Shourjya Ghosh.

Shourjya became our 24th graduate by having a strong performance at a recent Ohio Chess Congress, finishing tied for 1st in the U-2100 section, gaining 70 points and bringing his rating up to 2004.

I've been playing chess since 2012, but I've known how to play since the age of 5. I rose from 400 to about 1700 pretty quickly, so finally achieving 2000 has been a big relief since it's long overdue. I owe a large part of my success to CCL and all the coaches I've been lucky to work with, like Coach Atanas and especially Coach Goran. Outside of school and apart from chess, I enjoy playing tennis and basketball, participating in school clubs, playing viola, and watching the Cavs and the Indians. My favorite school subjects are math and biology. If I'm not doing anything productive, I'm either sleeping or I'm glued to my phone.
See a game that Shourjya played at his last tournament to earn this honor by CLICKING HERE.
This Who's Who chess list has been growing with great talent which is clearly characterized by a high value on perseverance, hard work, and passion.What is a CCL graduate? It is an honorary degree that we give to any CCL player who has worked their way through the ranks while in CCL and has made a USCF experts rating (>= 2000). This group is becoming a who's who of the top young talent around. It is little surprise that the top 13 rated scholastic chess players in Ohio are all CCL graduates!!! Being a CCL graduate entitles them to lifetime membership in CCL, based on good behavior, without the requirement of taking lessons. They are allowed to receive email spam from me for the rest of their lives!!
Who will be next?
