Handmade boards from Rio, a simul with a twist, and a tightening race in San José

"VAN" (Sports Desk - 16.08.2026) :: Day three of the American Continental Stage of the FIDE ISCF World Schools Team Championship 2026 brought rounds five and six to the DoubleTree by Hilton Cariari in San José, and one team dominated the day. Saco Oliveros de Lince began the day tied at the top with Harvest Park Middle School and Crescent Heights Academy, and by the evening, they had defeated both of them to stand alone, two match points clear. Behind them, the race for the qualifying places is now the main story, with four teams within a single match point of each other going into the final day.
