Is This Tournament a Good Fit?

This Friday night event is perfect if you're looking for a quick, social chess experience with a low $20 entry fee—it's a fast-paced 3-round tournament using 25-minute games that won't consume your whole evening. Players of all levels from beginner (U200) through expert (Open) have their own sections, so you'll compete against opponents near your skill level. With trophies awarded to top finishers in each section, there's a chance to take home some hardware without a serious time commitment.
