Are you looking for a slow time control team tournament? Are you unsatisfied with other online tourneys you have played in? If you answered "YES!!" to both of those questions, then we have the tournament league for you! The Online Chess League was founded for players like you: players who prefer slow time controls and healthy competition, as well as the chance to meet many great people. If you're looking for a team, no problem! we'll find you a slot. If you are already a member of a team, then sign up your team today!
OCL has been organizing online Team competitions for more than a year now, and our membership continues to grow. Teams are comprised of 4-6 players in three different sections: Open, Under-1900, and Under-1650 (previously U1600). Games are played primarily at ICC and FICS using a standard time control of 60 minutes with a 15-second per move increment.
The camaraderie of playing as part of a team is one of the greatest benefits of playing in the OCL. Getting together online with your teammates, analyzing each other's games, and helping each other prepare for upcoming matches can all be a part of the experience. In OCL you'll make new friends, learn about chess, and improve your game.
