Silver Knights Chess is smart fun for schools & kids

ImageWelcome to the website of the Silver Knights Chess Company! We partner with Elementary schools, Middle schools, and community centers to teach chess to children. We teach students of all different levels, from total beginners to national champions. We also run scholastic tournaments, where students can compete both individually and as members of their school’s team. For the more advanced scholastic chessplayers, we organize monthly adult chess tournaments to allow for stronger competition. We currently teach classes and run tournaments and camps in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and Maryland.

We also offer online chess videos through our Online Training Center. Instructors include several National and International Masters.
