Basking Ridge Swiss, 3/29

K-12 Under 1000 Swiss Tournament

Our tournaments are open to K-12 students rated under 1000 from any school!

This tournament has three sections based on age and rating, and players will only play opponents in their section. 

All sections begin at 9am, and they are all four rounds and non-elimination. The tournament will conclude between 12-1pm with an awards ceremony, in which the top individuals in all three sections will win trophies. 

• Games are 25 minutes with a 5 second delay, for players using a clock
• Clocks, sets, boards, score sheets and pencils provided
• Free WiFi
  
• Arrive and check-in by 8:45am at the latest. Announcements will begin promptly at 8:50, and round 1 will start at 9am

After 9am, rounds will begin ASAP, but players will have breaks between rounds. We strongly encourage parents/guardians to remain on-site, as Diplomat Chess will not be supervising players in the cafeteria between games. Snacks and lunch (peanut and nut-free) are allowed in the cafeteria. Water only in the playing hall.
