region vi Archives - Austin Chess Tournaments

All registrations appear automatically. Please allow two to three days for USCF information to be verified, at which point the current rating will be entered. (You may see ratings within sections that seem illogical. Please understand that only after the February supplement is finalized and published will players receive their final section adjustments. Rating changes made after mid to late January will not affect pairings or section placement.)

It is better to register early and change your section later, than to wait to register!

If your name has a , your registration is complete.
If your name has a , the registrar has a question about your registration. Please contact the registrar if you have not already been contacted.
If there is no symbol in front of your name, your USCF verification is in process.

You can verify your USCF membership ID and expiration by visiting the USCF’s Member Services Area. Anyone can become a USCF member. Players new to tournament chess are welcome to play.
