Upcoming Tournaments
November 9, 2025: Scholastic GrandmasterMac Grand Prix # 1
If you can’t attend Half-Day Chess, join Coach Mac November 9th at Hudson Way Immersion School in Stirling, NJ. It’s the first tournament in a series of tournaments that he’s calling the Grandmaster Mac Grand Prix. There will be team prizes that would be fun for our students to compete for. The idea behind the Grand Prix style tournament is that all of the team scores will add up over 3 tournaments for big final prizes.
