Learn chess with Magnus Academy, the five time world champion’s academy! We’ve taught 100,000 children to play including state & national champions, but most students are beginners looking to learn a new skill and have FUN. Class time is divided between lessons and practice games. Lessons range from the basic rules to advanced tournament strategies.
Students will have the opportunity to play in tournaments outside of club time, which may have an additional fee. All chess supplies provided. We welcome all grades and skill levels!
New this fall! Chess Club and Team
This program is an extension of Chess Club for the afternoon session students only. During club, class time is divided between lessons and practice games. For students signed up for Club & Team, in this second hour, we are taking Chess Club to the next level focusing on solving chess puzzles and playing tournament style games.
* If you already signed up for the Chess Club and want to add the Team option, please register using the "ADD TEAM" option. Students must be enrolled in Monday's chess club already and cannot only enroll in the team option.

- Bonus event with a BIG guest once per season - last year's guests were Magnus (the world champion) and Judit Polgar (the best female chess player of all time)!
