Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
Whether you're a developing player or an experienced competitor, this four-round Swiss offers something for most skill levels, with separate sections for players under 1700, 1200, and 700 rating to ensure competitive matches. The G/40 time control gives you enough time to think deeply without a major time commitment, and the modest $30–$40 entry fee makes it an affordable way to test yourself in tournament play. If you're under 700, you have the flexibility to play up into the U1200 section if you're ready for a bigger challenge.
