*Note - in order to have tournaments started "on"-time, Watauga Chess Club requires that players have paid and registered by 8:45 a.m. on the day of our weekend tournaments. Registrants paying after 8:45 will not be paired in the first round, but can play in future rounds. We have implemented this change because of tournaments starting and ending late.

Register online at Active.com by clicking here as late as Thursday, October 20th!

USCF membership required. May join at tournament site or during pre-registration.

Entry Fees: If pre-registered, $12 for regular, $7 for Jr, Sr, & Hcap. Add $3 for on-site registration.

Donation: Because of the Community Enrichment Center's generosity in letting us use their large Community Room for our tournament site, please bring 2 or 3 cans of canned food as a donation to their Food Pantry. The Community Enrichment Center helps low-income people and homeless families with its Food Pantry and its Adopt-A-Family partnership.
