Two boards. One team. That’s Bughouse.

An optional Friday event with its own registration and fee. You do not need to attend Bughouse to play in Saturday’s championship. Never played? We’ll explain the rules onsite.

How it works

Teams of two play speed chess on adjacent boards. Capture a piece and pass it to your partner, who can place it on their board.

Choose your category

Open: Grades K–12, any rating.
Reserve: Grades K–8, with an average team rating under 1100.
