Dear Parents,

Team tournaments are renowned for being among the best and most fun events in the chess community.
If your child has previously participated in USATW or Team vs. Team tournaments, you already know the fun! 

Unlike individual competitions, team tournaments foster a sense of unity and cooperation as they work closely towards a common goal.
This is NOT an individual tournament, this is a team tournament, so we encourage kids to team up and enter this tournament!
Worried about forming a team? Don't be! we'll help you and put you in a team with others who are also looking for team members.
We'll ensure everyone finds their place. Our goal is to make sure every participant has the opportunity to experience the fun of team competition.

So, why wait? Encourage your child to join us for an unforgettable chess adventure at the Calchess Team vs. Team Championship.
Let's make memories, forge friendships, and revel in the joy of chess.

Mark your calendars and register today! We can't wait to see your child on the chessboard.
