Hilton Charlotte University

Jun 16-20, 2025

Full Day

Ratings 1900+

OVERVIEW

The Charlotte Chess Center will organize its 8th annual Elite Chess Camp June 16-20, 2025, featuring 4 world-class trainers and dozens of the nation’s top junior players. This camp provides 25+ hours of the highest level of instruction available in the United States. This year's camp will be led by GM Judit Polgar, GM Peter Leko, GM Boris Gelfand, and GM Daniel Naroditsky.


This annual camp is the strongest non-invitational camp in the country - many former Elite campers have gone on to become GMs and IMs.

Campers are strongly encouraged to couple the camp with the 2025 Carolinas Classic, held just prior to camp at the same venue.
