Who wants to play a 7-dan?

For more than a year now, 2021 California Go Champion Kevin Yang 7d has been playing games against challengers online. The two players immediately analyze the game afterwards, while San Diego Go Club (SDGC) members watch and learn. This has been a volunteer project for Kevin ever since he started high school.

Any AGA member who would like to challenge Kevin to an even or handicap game can do so at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesdays on KGS (SDGC room). If more than one challenger would like to play, the higher rated player is usually given the game. Or a player can email Ted.Terpstra@gmail.com to reserve a specific Tuesday.

As a special incentive/bonus, if a player beats Kevin, she will be sent a San Diego Go Club T-shirt.
