*Note from the Organizer/Registrar — Take advantage of the early bird prices. You can register at any time regardless of qualification status. All players who qualify before the event will be moved into the championship sections, everyone else will be able to play in one of the I Love Chess Too Sections.

Qualification is back for the 2023 Washington State Elementary Chess Championship. Players who score 3.0 or more in any 5-round qualifying tournament are eligible to compete in their respective Grade Level Championship.

Many qualifying events are held throughout the state! For any questions, please see information below and/or contact the organizers.

For those who don’t qualify but still want to participate, there’s a section for eveyone! The ‘I Love Chess Too’ sections require no qualifications, are open to anyone, and are played in parallel with the grade level championship event. ‘I Love Chess Too’ sections will still have 5 rounds, start at the same time, and have similar trophies to those playing in the Grade Level Championships.
