   We are a non-profit organization, incorporated with the state of Norway in 1963, that is dedicated to the advancement of the game. As the recognized state affiliate of our national organization, the Norwegian Chess Federation, we are responsible for sponsoring and conducting all local championship tournaments for both youths and adults. Our extensive scholastic program includes holding the state team championship event for primary, elementary, middle school, and high school teams. At present, we have nine championship tournaments available for adults, with all but the Senior Championship and Women's Championship open to everyone. We frequently lend assistance and give publicity to local organizers who run chess tournaments and promote chess events.
