Is This Tournament a Good Fit?

With sections spanning from beginner through advanced players—from unrated prekindergarteners to U1800 competitors—this event welcomes chess players of all ages and skill levels. The format offers flexibility with both 3-round and 4-round Swiss options, and time controls range from untimed games for young beginners to classical G/55 for serious competitors, making it easy to find a pace that matches your style. At $59, the entry fee is quite reasonable for a well-organized tournament in New York City.
