Our chess events cater to players of all levels and are open to all. We strive to host tournaments, workshops, and friendly matches that provide opportunities for players to challenge themselves, learn and study the game, and connect with other players.

The Augusta Chess Association is committed to promoting and developing chess players of all levels and fostering a thriving chess community in the Central Savannah River Area (CSRA) centering around downtown Augusta.

Our association aims to organize chess events throughout the area, support scholastic chess players, generate interest in chess across social/economic boundaries, and build a diverse and inclusive chess culture.
