The Columbia Chess Club is proud to organize the 2025 SC Scholastic Championship at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center on March 22, 2025! Sanctioned by the South Carolina Chess Association, this is the largest rated scholastic tournament in the State, running since 1988. Winners in High, Middle, and Elementary Schools win the title of State Champion and qualify to the National Tournament of State Champions. Winning schools take home the title of State Team Champion!
We also are active on chess.com, which is a great way to connect online with other chess players from the midlands and represent our area in online club matches.
