The Madison City Chess League (MCCL) opened its doors in 2013, inviting kids from Madison and the surrounding area to play chess for free.  Since that time, MCCL has watched the interest in chess grow in our community.  In 2016, MCCL students swept every team award in the Primary and Elementary school sections of the State Scholastic Chess Championship. 2017 will be even more exciting as Madison hosts the State Scholastic Chess Championship and as our kids get to experience Super Nationals in Nashville (something that only happens once every four years!). 

MCCL has provided new programs and chess coaches for our students to help them develop their skills. These opportunities include:

All Star Chess Club for 2nd and 3rd Graders

Chess Tournaments like Queen's Quest

Summer Chess Camp

A City Chess Championship

Coaching Services at National Tournaments

Girls Chess Night

Master Level Instruction and Special Events

Last year we introduced a Lifetime Membership option.  For a $200 donation to MCCL, you and members of your family can become lifetime members of MCCL and you will be entitled to all the benefits of annual membership without having to renew.  And, it is a way for you to donate to an organization that will continue to bring chess events to your children for years to come.  We could not do what we do without your continued support.

Join today.  Become a member for a lifetime!  Or renew for 2017.  Either way, you support our organization and help us bring chess to more kids.  If you are a Lifetime Member, you do not need to renew.
