The Unit World League Series

Uniteer | Nov 26, 2011, 4:22 PM

Welcome to The Unit World League Series

The goal of these tournament series is first play a tournament according to the region where you live. Then the first 10 players of each region will go battle it out in the final. This final tournament will have 60 players, based on the fact that there are six regions:

  • North America (also includes Central America)
  • South America
  • Asia
  • Europe
  • Africa
  • Oceania

The North American and European tournaments already have a max of 100 players, but the rest of the tournaments we just have around 20 players, we could need some more help. So if you come from the following continents:

  • South America
  • Asia
  • Africa
  • Oceania

And if you like to participate in this tournament series, please check out one of the following link (according to where you are from):

Thanks a lot!

This is a private tournament

Hi all members, currently not part of The Unit,

This tournament has been organised by The Unit, celebrating the fact that 500 chess.com members have chosen to be part of our group. The ideas was to have a private tournament, so just "Uniteers" as we call us.

To my surprise I see lots of people here that are not part of The Unit Surprised

So......

Perhaps you would like to take advantage of this situation and become a member ????

If so, just follow the next link and join the group:

... Cool and you don't have to feel guilty of intruding in a private tourney Smile

Anyway, while we are all waiting for this tournament to fill up (max 100 pax.), I would like to present you with some other tournaments that are organised by The Unit:

Please forgive me for presenting you with soooo many juicy thematic tourneys, but hey, life is tough sometimes.

Thanks,

Uniteer - The Unit - http://www.chess.com/groups/home/the-unit


The idea behind this group is unity, as the name already implies. We want to form a group with all sorts of different levels, but with one common goal: To have members who put their best foot forward and who strive to treat every game as if it were the most important game and to make this group the most successful group in Chess.com, by not just thinking in the individual aspect of the game, but to experience to be part of a great group Playing chess in many expects is an individual activity. But the feeling to belong to a special group can create an extra dimension, like paying more attention and time to your games. A cohesive group is more than the sum of its parts, and synergy is the ability of a group to outperform even its best individual members. A group stands or falls with the participation of its members. In The Unit, YOU decide which other groups we challenge and YOU decide which thematic tournaments are created: http://www.chess.com/groups/home/the-unit
