Kids Thanksgiving Championship
Friday, November 24th

Grade Level Championship
Saturday and Sunday, December 2nd and 3rd

Dear Players and Parents,

Over Thanksgiving Break, Bay Area Chess will be hosting a kids tournament, so register quickly to reserve your entry. The
sections are by rating, so new players will be grouped with other unrated players who are also playing their first few tournaments. 
This is a great opportunity for your kids to experience their first tournament.

Coming up soon after that is the Grade Level Championships, a chance for your kids to win a state championship!


Late Fee will be turned on when space is becoming an issue (75-80% capacity), so don't wait any longer!
Any questions? email us to [email protected] and our amazing team will be answering your email super fast.

Many thanks!
Judit and the BAC Team
