Continental Chess Association - tournament information

Description

The business now known as Continental Chess Association (CCA) was founded in 1964 by Bill Goichberg to hold chess tournaments. During 1964-1967, these tournaments were in the New York City area only. In 1968, expansion to other areas began, and the name New York City Chess Association was replaced by Continental Chess Association.

CCA has held over 1800 chess tournaments in 25 states, and has awarded over $10,000,000 in prize money without ever reneging on a guaranteed prize. For many years, more players have competed in CCA tournaments than those of any other chess organizer in the USA. CCA is not a membership organization, but is affiliated with the United States Chess Federation (USCF) and requires USCF membership to play in its tournaments. CCA has placed first in 11 USCF membership drives.

CCA has originated and developed many ideas which were at first unusual or controversial, but were eventually adopted by other organizers and are now accepted as significant features of the American chess scene. These include:
