PS 31 Chess Club & Team

Welcome to the PS 31 Chess Club & Team Registration for the Chess Club & Team is now open!

Program Vision:

From complete beginners to advancing tournament players, our goal is that all PS 31 players can experience both the joy & significant social/educational benefits of learning and playing chess. Our PS 31 Team will prepare for Local, City, State & National Competitions.

Our in-person programming will match players into groups based on skill, interest level & age. This allows coaches to identify and create the right training environment for each player (complete beginner - advanced competitors).

Class groupings (subject to change based on program enrollment):

  • Rooks: 300+ USCF

  • Bishops: U 300 USCF Advancing players with an eye towards competition

  • Pawns: K-1 introductory coaching and play

  • Juniors is a one time enrollment offering for first time players, the class will introduce the foundations of the game of chess.
    *Please note Junior Class dismissal is at 4:20 PM

* Each PS 31 program member will receive a team shirt and a www.chesskid.com gold membership.

  • We will continue to follow all protocols as outlined by the NYC DOE regarding in person programming.
