Welcome to 2005-2006 Internet College Chess League home page!

The ICCL was re-created as a non-profit organization in late 2004 to address several problems with the state of university chess clubs in the US. We set out to improve competitive participation in university chess clubs, and to build an organization that could provide the university chess scene with community support. Volunteers from universities across the country have come together to build and support the ICCL. If you're interested in joining us, please click the links on the side of the page for information and a sign-up form. If you have any questions, please contact us.

   
 

We are recruiting University Chess teams that want to participate in the 2005/6 season

We are recruiting University Chess teams that want to participate in the 2005/6 season.
Last year, in our inagural year, we restarted the league with a handful of dedicated universities. At least 3 masters and plenty of experts were involved in exciting internet tournament matches. This year, we're looking to expand the league and attract a larger range of teams.

We will be having two major ICCL tournaments this year, a Swiss team tournament will be held in the autumn, and another round-robin event is scheduled for the winter and spring quarters. You do not need to participate in all of our tournaments; you can pick and choose the tournaments that your team wants to participate in. We have a wide range of players; there are several Master level players, all the way down to class E players on Junior Varsity teams. During any ICCL tournament, you should be able to find a competitive match with a team of similar strength.

If you are not sure if your team is ready to commit to play, consider signing up for our newsletter to be informed of upcoming ICCL matches. Anyone subscribed may send out announcements to other teams, and since it is a moderated list, you will not be sent commercial spam. When you are ready to participate in our league, sign-up using our registration form.

If you would like to have a tune up before the Pan-Am's, or just want to get your team together to play fun casual games with other universities, we are here to assist you. So whether you're representing a club, or just an individual looking to represent your school, please sign up for our newsletter and visit our page on joining the ICCL.
