Is This Tournament a Good Fit?

This event is ideal for young players from kindergarten through middle school, with separate rated and unrated sections to match your skill level, as well as adult sections for players under and over 1000 rating. The four-round Swiss format with 30-minute games keeps the pace brisk while still allowing meaningful play, and the $35–$40 entry fee is very reasonable for a scholastic tournament.
