Is This Tournament a Good Fit?

This scholastic event is perfect for young players in Arizona, with five sections spanning from beginners (K-3 Under 200) up through competitive juniors and open play. The fast-paced format (G/25; d5) fits neatly into a single afternoon, and the modest $25–$35 entry fee makes it accessible for families looking for frequent tournament experience. With four rounds of Swiss-system play, you'll face opponents near your skill level regardless of your rating.
