Open Tournaments

Scholastic tournaments are those events open to chess players who are in grades K-8. A few of these events have sections for K-12 players.

Open tournaments are open to adult chess players. Some are also open to younger players, have rating restrictions or are invitational events.

All tournaments are USCF-rated, unless otherwise noted and require USCF membership. USCF Memberships may be purchased at most tournaments. Unless otherwise stated please bring your own boards, sets and clocks to events.
