New York State Championship 2023
September 01, 2023 - September 04, 2023
Thank You for playing in the 145th edition of the New York State Championship-- America's oldest annual tournament (and one of the oldest annual tournaments in the World)!
We're glad you could join us for a part of Chess History in Albany!
Congratulations to the new 2023 New York State Champion, Grandmaster Djurabek Khamrakulov!
The New York State Chess Association is the USCF's oldest State Chess association, helping to promote Chess in the Empire State (NYSCA is a separate organization from the US Chess Federation). You can join NYSCA for $20/year for 4 issues of Empire Chess or $12/year for 2 issues. Continental Chess offers a discount to NYSCA members for a number of the tournaments it runs in New York (if you play in enough of our tournaments in a year, the discounts you receive can add up to more than or most of the cost of the annual membership dues you paid)! You do not need to be a resident of New York State to be a NYSCA member. The NYSCA website is www.nysca.net
Thank You for supporting Chess in New York State!
