Chess Crash Course
If you’re new to chess or still learning the basic moves and rules, we have a learning track that’s perfect for you: the Chess Crash Course. Master how the pieces and pawns move, learn en passant, castling, chess notation, rules and the basic skills you need to start playing chess with confidence!
Checkmate Clinic
Designed specifically for intermediate players who already know the basics and are ready to jump into the world of attacking chess. Campers will improve their skills by working through checkmate challenges, forks, pins, skewers as well as basic and intermediate endgame skills.
Tactical
Tune Up
Our Advanced Camp session is for players who already have an understanding of intermediate middlegame and endgame play. This session builds upon those skills to focus on advanced topics in the opening, middle and endgame designed to help campers sharpen their play.
