A list of the various Vote Chess League and CUP Tournament groups on chess.com that are active as of this posting. The descriptions are from the teams public profile. Not all leagues automaticlly accept all groups, Some are National only, some are Country only, some have size requirments or limits. It is all up to the group, I only list them, I have no control over who runs anything. Please read their group profile before applying.
Attn League/Tournament Adminstrators:
When Forming a League, my advice is to create a static Main group as your League/Tournament Headquarters so the interested pontential Teams and admins can have one permanent place to go to get info for your current season. For example (World League HQ). From your headquarters you can then inform your members of new seasonal groups. This way you have one permanent link here, and less chance of error than submitting new ones every season.
A final word of advice. The creators and admins of these leagues put a lot of work into creating and running them. Please only join if you are serious about seeing it through to the finish, and are willing to do the work required to manage a team in the leagues.
Thank you
