Backyard Chess Live
Uniting young players through chess and community.

Access to our private community, one weekly, focused 45-minute session designed to keep students engaged from start to finish and weekend virtual tournaments with prizes.

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

Classes are intentionally kept small so coaches can provide each student with individual attention and guidance during lessons.
What Sets Backyard Chess Live Apart

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 weekly virtual tournaments with prizes. This gives our kids the chance to apply what they have learned in a competitive setting.
