School Registration

Thank you for your interest in the CYO Chess Team at St. Monica Catholic School! Students in grades 2nd to 8th grade are eligible to participate. Indy Chess is excited to coach and coordinate the chess team with the following schedule:

  • Practices on Monday afternoons beginning August 19, 2024 until December 16, 2024 from 3:00pm to 4:30pm (till 4:15pm after the CYO season ends).  The club will not meet on September 2 (Labor Day) or October 14 (Fall Break). The practices continue year round on Mondays, with next semester's registration coming in January 2025.

  • Matches on Wednesday afternoons October 2 to November 6 from 4:15pm to 6:00pm at other Indianapolis Catholic schools. We will need parent volunteers to coordinate rides and snacks.

  • Team Tournament on Saturday, November 9 from 8:30am to 3:00pm at Lumen Christi School downtown.

 

The cost is $100 per semester to cover coaching (free if on any form of public assistance like SNAP, Medicaid, etc.), plus $50 CYO fee, plus $15 for a team T-shirt. Assistance can be provided for any fees if needed, just note that below.  You will be charged $115 below, and the CYO fee will be direct billed by St. Monica.
