Fall 2026 Chess Program Updates & Registration (Monday & Tuesday Sessions)
Dear Hickory Ridge Families,
We are excited to share an update on behalf of the Charlotte Chess Center regarding our upcoming Fall 2026 Chess Program!
We currently have 21 students enrolled for Mondays and 35 students enrolled for Tuesdays, and seats are still available for both days. We encourage families interested in joining to enroll early, as early registration helps the Chess Center secure the proper number of coaches and arrange optimal classroom space for our students.

Both sessions are open to students in Grades K–5. Tuition is $249 per student, which includes weekly instruction as well as a ChessKid.com Gold membership (a $50 value).
