Central New York Open 2023
September 22, 2023 - September 24, 2023
Thank You, Everyone, for joining us in Syracuse for a record turnout for the ninth edition of the annual Central New York Open!
Continental Chess offers a $5 discount on the online entry fee for being a current New York State Chess Association (NYSCA) member (or for paying the NYSCA dues when registering online if offered). This discount is valid for most of the 2-day or 3-day tournaments Continental Chess runs in New York State. You do not have to be a New York State resident to join the New York State Chess Association.
NOTE: NYSCA membership is NOT the same as USCF membership (NYSCA is an optional New York State membership, not the national membership), and includes either two issues of “Empire Chess” magazine for $12 a year, or $20 a year for four issues. You can join the New York State Chess Association here at the tournament.
Thank You Very Much for your support of America’s longest-running State Chess Association!
