Please bring your own chess sets, clocks, notation sheets, and pens.
PLEASE NOTE: It takes a lot of work to set up as well break down the chess sets, tables and chairs for these tournaments. Consequently, we are requesting that adult players as well as parents of youth players offer to assist our unpaid volunteers who graciously give up their time to perform these tasks.
