Tournaments
Experience the Excitement of Face-to-Face Chess Competitions
Service Overview
LearnChess Academy organises exciting, face-to-face chess tournaments open to young players aged 5–16. Our in-person tournaments provide children an opportunity to compete, build confidence, and connect with fellow chess enthusiasts in an engaging, friendly, face-to-face environment.
Typically capped by rating (max. 1400 Elo ECF/FIDE) and venue capacity (approx. 60–70 players), our events ensure fair competition and an inclusive atmosphere suitable for beginners and intermediates. Regularly held in Brenchley, Kent (and occasionally across the UK in partnership with other organisations) our rapid-format tournaments (15+0 Swiss system, 6 rounds) feature exciting competition, attractive awards, and memorable experiences.
