I am trying to access the USCF upcoming tournaments site(domain uschess.org), and is is not working

?????????

Thanks for help

Working for me

https://new.uschess.org/upcoming-tournaments

Ahhhhhh I see... I thought they were same domain... I am trying now and it is working. Thanks!

They are the same domain. If you just. Type USChess.org it will automatically forward to new.uschess.org.

US Chess is a money sink. Not only is membership expensive, but then you have to pay for tournament entry, and 90% of the time the tournament requires that you be a member of the state chess organization as well. Not worth it when I can get a game on here for free.

Its only for adults!!

The United States Chess Federation is certainly open to players of all ages. It serves players in the United States.

For decades, their monthly magazine served as the best way to find out about tournaments in the US and the rating services they provided were indispensable. Their magazine was one of the only sources of Chess news for the very small group of tournament players in the US. (What was the membership at its peak? Maybe 100,000 in the Fischer boom. Probably 50,000 now.)

What do people want from a national federation? Support for upcoming players? How much can they provide given their very small membership base? If $10 from each membership goes for supporting Olympiad teams and or upcoming players, that's still a budget of only $500,000- which won't go that far in a country the size of the United States.

Membership recently went over 100,000 for the first time in history, though it was on track to before COVID hit. I think that number may be active members.

hi, update: it has crashed again... this is really weird.

Just tried with zero issues.

That is interesting
