To organize a community of students, parents, and instructors committed to the benefits and growth of scholastic chess in New York City. We hope to set the standard for the limitless possibilities with chess and children. NYChessKids is a resource and network for teachers in the city, parents of the players, and kids of the game.
Students are encouraged to post their games on our website to each others. Parents can post events and contact other parents through our website. Our mission is to listen carefully to your dreams, and offer a program that will help you as a player or parent to realize your goals in scholastic chess.

Camp:  With the half day option, students work on chess for the duration of their stay here (until 1:00pm). For students staying for the full day, the morning will be mostly devoted to chess, while in the afternoon there will be an outdoor exercise portion (weather permitting) followed by a tournament-style game and analysis session with the teachers.
