-
Weekly live coaching, online tournaments and anytime access to a community of young chess players.

We offer groups for all levels! Placement is determined by your child’s rating, age and experience to ensure the best environment.

What Sets Backyard Chess Live Apart
01 / Elite Community
Students join a private online community where they connect with other young players. Our kids share games, exchange ideas and build friendships with peers who love chess.
02 / Professional Instruction
BYC coaches have years of experience teaching chess to children both in-person and online. Lessons are structured to help students steadily improve their game.
03 / Competitive Play
Beyond weekly lessons, students compete in a weekly virtual tournament with prizes. This gives our kids the chance to apply what they have learned in a competitive setting.
