ABOUT

Cloudman Chess was founded as a chess club at Georgia Tech geared towards beginner players, and we stay true to our inclusive roots. Players of all levels and backgrounds are welcome!

We host weekly meetings, tournaments, workshops, and other events, which you can find scheduled on our Events page. Don't see an event there you'd like? Let us know here.

"Cloudman Chess provides a friendly environment where I can play against other casual players at about the same level as me. The flexibility on the level of weekly commitment and absence of dues are also great!"

- THOMAS LARSSON, MEMBER

"The great thing about Cloudman Chess is that you don't need a fancy board, high rating, or years of experience to be a part of it. People who have world rankings play next to complete beginners, and everyone has fun with it."

- RYAN RODRIGUEZ, FOUNDER

Unlike other for-profit organizations, everything we offer (including coaching by titled players, $250+ purse tournaments, etc) is completely free and open to anyone ― you don't even have to be a Georgia Tech student.
