Tournaments, clubs & initiatives.
USCF-rated tournaments, Alzheimer's awareness keynotes, and weekly community chess clubs across South Carolina, all open to players of every level.
What's coming up.
Our tournament regions.
We host and partner with events across three regions of South Carolina, bringing chess and Alzheimer's awareness to every corner of the state.
Home base of the initiative. Tournaments hosted at local venues, schools, and community centers in partnership with the Upstate chess community.
The Midlands championship series brings the initiative to the state capital, with Alzheimer's Association speakers and awareness programming at each event.
Our partnership with the SC State Scholastic Chess Championship places Alzheimer's awareness in front of student chess players from every county in the state.
Weekly retirement-home chess clubs.
These aren't on the calendar. They are the calendar. Every week our volunteers show up, set up boards, and play with residents. If you'd like us to start a club near you, reach out.
Active weekly sessions for senior residents and student volunteers in Anderson County, one of our longest-running programs.
Partner sessions across multiple Greenville-area retirement communities, pairing high school volunteers with residents for cognitive engagement through chess.
We'll help you set up boards, recruit volunteers, and bring a weekly chess program to a retirement community in your area. Get in touch.
