Ready, Set, Play!

Extra Ed’s facilitated Chess Tournaments, offered each Saturday and Sunday throughout the summer, are primed to rev up any player’s competitive engine. Simply register with Extra Ed for each Tournament and You’re in! All levels accepted.

Each Extra Ed tournament lasts for 1.5 hours and includes an optional top board game analysis from one of our Chess Pros. Each player will play at least 6 games at 10 minutes each and obtain a rating from the Chess Federation of Canada, Canada’s official chess ratings agency.

Players are divided into player groups based on their rating and skill level. No rating, no worries, your first tournament provides your first rating.

Happily, all proceeds from Extra Ed’s Chess Tournaments will be donated to the Jacques Katz Memorial Scholarship Fund.

See you at Game time!
