Get ready for an exciting season of strategic thinking and friendly competition! Our Upper School Chess Club gives students the opportunity to represent Harding Academy in the Rookly Chess Esports League, competing against over 300 schools across the United States and Canada—all without ever leaving campus! Through Rookly's innovative online platform, students play dozens of chess matches throughout the season against competitors from schools like Lausanne, St. George's, Christian Brothers, and many more. Every game is automatically recorded, allowing students to review their matches, analyze their strategies, and learn from each move they make. It's the perfect combination of competition and learning! Please note, this is not an instructional class. Students will need to be at some skill level to compete.
