What your school gets

A trained patron

A teacher from your staff, certified through CCA patron training, with a curriculum and session plans ready to run.

A club with identity

A crest, a public club page, a roster — an institution inside your institution that students are proud to belong to.

A real calendar

A place in the regional league: match days against neighbouring schools, tournaments each term, a path to the national final.

The record

Every game your students play — on boards or online — builds a verified public record: standings for the school, careers for the children.

The school year, on the board

Term 1 · Sept – Dec

Clubs form & league opens

Enrollment, baseline ratings, weekly sessions, the first regional match days — and the National Cup gets underway.

Term 2 · Jan – Mar

The league in full flight

League match days continue, the cup reaches its knockouts, and online inter-club play keeps boards busy between fixtures.

Term 3 · Apr – Jun

Zonal finals → national champion

Division winners meet in four zonal finals; one school lifts the national title; every game is archived into careers.

Schools already on the board for 2026/27

Questions principals ask

Do we need computers or internet at the school?: No. Clubs run on real boards. The patron records results from a phone, and the match-day tools work offline — results sync whenever a connection appears.
How are students protected online?: Public pages show students by first name and initial until a guardian consents to more. Full profiles live inside the club, visible to the patron and the academy.
What does it cost the school?: The partnership terms are set out in the proposal — request it and the academy will walk your administration through everything in one meeting.

The 2026/27 intake is open.
