On some sites more experienced players will help less experience players to improve they game (teaching ladder). I think it will be a nice idea to organise several teaching tournaments may be 4 players in the tournament (I just started one with 8 and this is just too much work), where more experience player (probably TD) will comment games. In fact commenting games is one of the best ways to improve you own game, so it will be beneficial to everyone :)
OK kirill57, I have a place where this might be very useful. However, I am not in any way a tournament leader. I have played in just a small handful of tournaments and have just a little experience in how they are handled. In this environment clocks are not realistic. It would be way too expensive for the people involved. Where can I find rules for a tournament? I really like the teaching idea you have. That idea is much more focused on the overall goal of the tournament (teach important social skills). Again where can I go to get such instructions?
HOWDEY, you could create a tournament here and invite all your friends to join. You would have to buy a membership to organize one, of course, then chess.com's software will take care of most of the work. If you prefer to play games in person then check out this page... that would be my choice if you all live nearby and enjoy weekly get-togethers. Consider who will provide boards, chess sets, snacks, and drinks--consider sharing the responsibility or charging a small entrance fee to cover them. Good luck! :)
Thanks that helps alot. I am open for any resources.
