Fairfax County Chess

Silver Knights has been teaching chess in Fairfax County since 2008. Over that time period we've taught more than 30,000 students in after school clubs, before school clubs, and camps. They include kids who've won seventeen state championships and four national championships, but most of our students are beginners looking to learn a fun new game. That's how all the champions start out too!

We've run programs at most of the elementary schools in the county.  We also run a ton of camps every summer and classes during the year with Fairfax County Parks and Rec (in Parktakes), McLean Community Center, Vienna Parks and Rec, and Falls Church City Parks and Rec. If you don't see your school below you can go here to set up a club!

During the 2021-2022 school year, we also have a package of online camps on days when students in FCPS schools are off.  Students can also sign up for those one at a time.  For more information on a program, select it below.
