Hi Jeff, welcome to Chess.com! Unfortunately, you cannot join any tournaments just yet. Here is an excerpt from the tournament help page to let you know what you must do:
Anyone can join a tournament as long as you meet the critera for the tournament you are joining. Tournament Directors have the ability to change the criteria on a per tournament basis, but the default criteria is given below:
- Must have completed at least 5 rated games of Online Chess on Chess.com.
- Must have at least a 10% win ratio.
- Must have no more than a 10% timeout ratio.
If you have any further questions about this, just let us know!
