LBCSCL
LBCSCL
The LBCSCL is the collection of the chess-playing high schools in Bucks and Montgomery counties in Pennsylvania. Our league which began in the 1960s seeks to promote the artistry and camaraderie of the game among high schoolers in our area. If you are a player, parent of a player, teacher, or administrator and want more information on how to bring LBCSCL to your school, please contact Varsitychess@gmail.com
Please excuse our appearance as we transition to the 2024-25 season. Nothing should be considered official until we launch the site in early November. If you see this message...we are still working!
