Dear Parents,

What US Amateur Team West fun? Have your child attended any of the two team championships last year? It's so much fun!!!
CalChess Board has voted to make this a state championship!! So for the first time, we'll be having a CalChess Scholastic Team vs. Team Championship!!

This is NOT an individual tournament, this is a team tournament, so we encourage kids to team up and enter this tournament!
If you don't have a team: no problem, we'll help you and put you in a team with others who are also looking for team members.

Prizes are clocks or vouchers!
