DS6 is in an after school chess club that meets once a week for one hour. There is also a tournament once a year, but we have not participated in that yet. DS seems to love it, and it is very reasonable at only $25 a session (5 weeks). I had my dd7 in chess club last year but she didn't like it. I noticed there were some girls in it last year but none of them returned this year, and now there is only one girl in it this year. It does seem to be a bit male dominated.
