This is the inaugural post for the National Go Center’s forum. Things might look a little generic right now: I haven’t had time to do any customization. But I wanted to get things rolling so people could get registered and start using the boards. Let me know if you have any feedback!

Hello from North Virginia!

Excellent! Thanks Nate.

Looks good! I like it.

@Nathan Hope you had a good tournament!

Looks great! Thanks Nate!

The Massachusetts Go Association researched doing a group purchase of go clocks from China. The clock they decided on was the LEAP pq9903. They go for about $40 online and with the group purchase we will be able to get them for about $20. The NGC is ordering 65. Here is an Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/LEAP-Digital-Chess-Clock-Timing/dp/B00G62S58K

I have a sentimental personal attachment to Ing clocks. I’m guessing that those might be expensive and not easily available?

The price on these seems outstanding, so long as the clocks do everything they need. It looks like we can check out the discussion the Massachusetts Go Association had: https://discourse.massgo.org/t/more-clocks/477

I didn’t know anyone had a sentimental attachment to Ing clocks! Hopefully the LEAPs won’t be as unintuitive about setting the time parameters.

Should we have a category for K-12 education discussion? I am most interested in elementary school, where I will be working with third grade students and older.
Are others really teaching K-second grade?
