Chess Team & Club

The Chess Team & Club is one of the most successful student organizations in CBA history. The program is split into two parts, a competitive team and a recreational club, and typically has 25 or more members.

The Chess Team boasts an impressive resume, which includes winning the 2016 U1900 National Championship. A majority of the competitions for the Chess Team come during the winter and early spring months. The team practices multiple times per week leading up to their competition season, with the veteran players being required to attend at least two practice a week and all tournament competitions.

The Chess Club’s purpose is to teach the game to anyone who is interested in learning. Many of the players from the team help new students develop skills and a passion for the game. The club meets two to three times per week and continues play throughout the school year.
