BlitzChamps III Returns with Community Hype Arena
The hardest hitting event in chess is back: the mighty BlitzChamps, which pits NFL superstars against each other to find football’s top chess player.
BlitzChamps III kicks off on May 22 with $100,000 at stake for charity, and that all-important title of BlitzChamp for 2024.
NFL Films will be documenting this year’s tournament, and will feature BlitzChamps III and its players, past and present, as part of their NFL Films Presents series airing this season on NFL Network and FS1.
As usual, we're hyping up with a community blitz arena and this time around we're giving away a vinyl chess set signed by the BlitzChamps III participants. Both the winner of our arena and a random participant will claim the prize.
- Time and date: May 22 at 1 p.m. ET/19:00 CEST
- Format: Two-hour 3+0 Arena
- Prizes: Two signed vinyl chess sets from BlitzChamps participants (one for the winner and another for a random participant)
- Where: Right here in the BlitzChamps Community Club. Arena link: https://www.chess.com/play/arena/3407933
