  • 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month:
    • USCF Classical, G/60+15. One game.
  • 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month:
    • USCF Rapid Quads, G/15+10. Three games.
  • If there is a fifth Thursday, Casual Play is at Marina Mercantile down the street! No USCF membership required.

Events Page Updated for August 2023!

All of the chess events for August 2023 are on the Events Page – give them a look!

Reminder: Registration opens the weekend before the Thursday event is scheduled. This is so people have ample time to sign up but don’t sign up a month out and fail to show up.

See you at the club! Remember, casual Saturdays are still going on at Marina Mercantile.

Events for June 2023 are up!

The Events Page has the tournaments for the first four weeks of June – give them a look and be sure to pre-register before showing up!

With summer break just around the corner, we expect more and more scholastic players to show up as well as college-aged people headed home for the break. We’ll lift the cap of 24 players as we get more equipment and ensure we can run our tournaments correctly as-is.

Thanks so much for making the club a great success!

See you this week for classical!
