The Danville Chess Club

is a

United States Chess Federation

affiliate. Our USCF ID is A6041618. Our Chief Tournament Director is John Kevin Barbour, USCF ID 15215293. Aside from the annual Park Blitz events that we do our tournaments usually take the form of a

Three Round Swiss

played with a time control of 60 minutes per player per game and a five second delay per move. This is noted as G60;d5 and any time controls can be seen at the top of the reults table on the link for any event. Our Blitz Tournaments are G5;d0 but in each round you will play the same player twice, once with each color. Below you will find a history of our USCF rated events and links for said events and their winners.
