Chess Team

Who we are 

The University of Texas at Dallas takes chess seriously. You can see it in the fierce competitiveness of our chess team. The UT Dallas Chess Team has won national and international titles and regularly represents the University in the Pan American Intercollegiate Championship, the National Collegiate Chess League team championship and the Final Four of Chess. The UT Dallas Chess Program offers the open-access chess club and chess in education initiatives, including online instruction for academic credit and summer camps. 

What we're fundraising for

The UT Dallas Chess Programs supports area scholastic chess with tournaments, exhibition matches, classes, and summer camps. Your donations would help support this community outreach and development of the mental skills of our youth. 

Our impact

The mental prowess of the chess team is representative of that of the UT Dallas student body. Just as our graduating UTD students compete on the global stage, so do members of the chess team with intrastate, national, and international competitions.
