Dear G & T Chess Families,

Thank you for all of your continued support. We have fielded plenty of feedback which has helped us evolve the idea of creating an online community for our highest performing G & T players.

This new G & T Online Community will help keep our students motivated through being a part of a larger supportive community. Our G & T Online Community will be available to all scholastic players 1000 + USCF.

Through our G & T Online Community we are thrilled to announce the launch of our G & T Chess League which will include daily tournaments, puzzle contests, and access to G & T Coaches for game review and daily lessons.

We will keep daily Individual and Team stats for both our tournaments and puzzle contests. Prizes will be awarded to top Players and Teams at the end of each month.
