Join us for Alaska's Premiere Youth Chess Tournament!
Alaska Youth Chess has seen a significant resurgence in participation and strength in the last few years. The 2006 event promises to be the most exciting and fun to date. No other competitive arena compares to the battle of the 64 squares! You don't necessarily have to run fast or jump high to be a Champion in this mind over matter competition!
