Trophies will be awarded for the top 3 finishers in each section
Join us for the Turkey Day Blitz Tournament!
Students will play around 10 games based on entry, all rated with the Learners Chess internal rating system! The 1st round will begin right at the scheduled time for your section, with following rounds beginning approximately 5 minutes after the previous round has concluded.
Games will be played with a 5-minute time control on each side with a 3 second bonus added back to your time after you make each move.
Trophies will be awarded for the top 3 finishers in each section. A blitz tie-break game may be required to determine trophies.
Students will be divided into smaller groups based on their Learners Ratings, and paired to play as many people in their smaller section as possible.
Two sections for this tournament are available:
The sections are designed so students can stay in their learning zones, avoiding being either bored or too overwhelmed with each game.
Join us again at 5:45pm for a casual Bughouse Tournament! Students may request a teammate while registering or find one on the day of the tournament. We will play as many rounds as we have time for until 6:45pm. Each bughouse game is played with a 5-minute time control on each side.
Trophies for Bughouse will be awarded for the top finishing teams.
Participants must currently be in grades kindergarten to 12.
