Time: Check in 8:00 - 8:30 a.m. First round starts 9:00 a.m. The rounds will probably wrap up in the early afternoon – with awards ceremony shortly thereafter. It will be a Swiss style tournament, consisting of four (4) rounds for each division. Awards will be presented to the top finishers in each level. We may do team awards as well (I’ll let you know).
Separate tournaments will be run for 5 th , 6 th , 7 th , and 8 th grades with each student playing students from their appropriate grade. Students can “play up” to 5 th grade if they are younger than 5 th . IESA rules apply. This is not a rated tourney. Coaches will be on the floor to assist players. Parents can view the games from the bleachers, but may not communicate with their children during play at the risk of disqualifying that player.
Note: All players are required to record their games with notation. We will provide notation sheets and pencils if you do not have any available.

- STATE CHESS BOARDS and accompanying pieces (at least 1 for every 2 players)
