Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This one-day, four-round Swiss is ideal for Arizona players of all levels, with separate sections for players rated 1800+, under 1800, and under 1200—no playing up allowed. The quick G/30 format keeps the day moving while remaining engaging, and the modest $35–$45 entry fee makes it accessible. Half-point byes are available (up to two per player) if you need scheduling flexibility.
