The Scholastic Sunday Team Challenge is a school team chess tournament on November 1 from 2-6pm at St. Monica School Gym (6131 N Michigan Rd., Indianapolis).  It is designed to be an unrated warmup tournament for the regional and state championships in February and March respectively.  That said, there will still be five trophies for winning teams in each division, including medals for first place finishers.  We are putting together teams of four players (3 minimum, up to 2 -6 players from each school in the following divisions: 3rd Grade & Under, 6th Grade & Under, and 8th Grade & Under.  To register your child to compete, fill out the form below and submit the entry fee of $10.

​

We will accept registrations for school teams where Indy Chess runs a program until October 24 at 5:00pm.  Then we will put together teams and email confirmations to parents/guardians shortly thereafter.  If a school has too few registrants, we will refund any and all entry fees of $10 by November 2.  [Note: If your child wants to compete by themself and not as a member of their school team, check out indychess.org/events as we run a monthly individual kids' tournament called Scholastic Sunday with sections based on player strength, including a "Casual/Unrated" section for new tournament players to try it out.]
