Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
Perfect for newer and intermediate players looking for a welcoming, same-day event, this tournament offers separate sections for players rated under 1200 as well as a quad section for stronger players, all at an accessible entry fee. Depending on your skill level, you'll play either four rounds of rapid chess (25 minutes per side) or a quad format with a longer time control (40 minutes per side), giving you options that fit different playing styles.
