2025 GM Summer Camp

Embark on a journey of chess mastery with the ICA GM Summer Camp! Register now to secure your spot in this elite program, where students with exceptional talent receive expert training from world-renowned instructors with decades of experience in playing and teaching chess.

This camp is designed for high skilled youth with a rating over 1600+. GM Summer Camp is a six week training program designed to enhance campers’ understanding of advanced chess strategy and tactics, preparing them to take their chess game to the master level!

Students can register for the day camp or the overnight camp experience. All students engage in regular fun and educational activities, including advanced chess training and sports sessions, from 9 AM to 5 PM. After the commuting students leave, overnight campers after 5:00PM head out for exciting recreational activities. These activities include things like pickleball, bowling, miniature golf, and more! They then enjoy a group dinner together, and continue spending time together in a warm social environment, often playing chess and hanging out. Campers go to sleep at 10 PM.

Our GM Summer Camp head-coach, Grandmaster Alexander Stripunsky, has trained many of our top young players, including NM Joshua Colas and Gary Leschinsky, providing them with the guidance to achieve their chess potential. Click HERE to read more about GM Stripunsky's accomplishments!
