USA Chess is the largest and premier
chess camp organizer for children in the United States. Founded in
1997 by National Master Noureddine Ziane and Katie Stone, USA
Chess has grown from one camp in Dallas, TX to more than 90 camps
across the United States!
Our staff is comprised of the best children's
chess instructors in North America! The USA Chess chess
camps are uniquely qualified to cater to the needs of the advanced
scholastic player as well as the true beginner. USA Chess
hit its first milestone in the summer of 2000 producing the
largest chess camp ever held in the United States, with more than
250 students enrolled. What was most surprising, however, was the
amount of absolute beginners in attendance - more than 50% of the
total enrollment was just starting to play chess.
This
realization led to the national roll-out tour of 75 camps in more
than 50 cities by 2005.
The annual tours have been immensely successful
with several thousand campers attending this year alone!
USA Chess thrives on providing a
structured environment that is extremely conducive to learning
chess. We hand-pick the best children's chess instructors from all
over the United States and bring them to each camp. We believe our
team is most effective in teaching chess to children of all ages
and levels. The exceptional organization and ever-fun curriculum
has fueled much interest from scholastic players and coaches from
around the country, prompting them to request USA Chess
chess camps in their areas.
USA Chess presents
a positive 'hip' image of chess to the outside world. Teaching
chess to children is their passion and their enthusiasm is
infectious. They are successfully infusing our next generation of
chess players with a love for the game. |
