Chess Club Manager 2.5

Chess Club Manager, part of the Think Like A King School Chess Software System, lets you create all the information a chess club needs, and use it to transform an activity into a varsity sport. This remarkably easy-to-use software enables you to fully motivate students with features like club ratings and standings, bonus points and statistics.

Export player data, choose a rating system, create instant tournament registrations by print or e-mail. Export data to SwissSys or WinTD to run your own tournaments.

Print award certificates for everything from playing skills to puzzle solving to effort to sportsmanship - or any other category you create.

It even lets you automatically reward learning via progress through our Thinking Belt system*. So whether through performance or participation, everyone in your chess program becomes a winner. And all your kids are inspired to do their best.

Chess Club Manager (CCM) makes it easier than ever for teachers to use chess as a powerful educational tool. It's like having your own assistant coach on duty 24 hours a day.
