About  Us

What Sets Us Apart

AAUChess is bringing high-level chess play to City Hall Park every Thursday evening! Anyone may join and test their skills against some of the world’s greatest chess players all while being able to enjoy the warm Summer weather in the heart of New York City! Young or old, beginner or expert, any chess enthusiast would leap at the opportunity to try their hand in one of our events as one of many players taking on a Chess Master!

What is a simul?
“Simul” is chess slang for a simultaneous exhibition which is a type of event in which an expert player goes against numerous opponents simultaneously. As the chess expert (or here, chess Master 😀) goes from board to board, they make a move at each one 

Donations
Funds raised by these events will benefit chess programs in schools throughout the five boroughs of New York City.
