The tournament will feature both a Secondary and Primary division, so all AGS students are welcome to participate.
Format of the tournament as follows:

* Gold/Silver/Bronze medals awarded to various grade/year level categories
* “Star of the tournament” trophy for top scorer of the day
* Table prizes/giveaways
* Northern Star Chess State Final or Semi-final qualifications announced at the end of tournament based on results for the day
