FM Alisa Melekhina discusses the transition of corporate team championships to online play during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her team, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, hosted the first two OTB seasons of the NYC Corporate Chess League, then during lockdown competed in the inaugural FIDE World Corporate Online Team Championships in February, and the Corporate E-Sports Association Global Chess League this spring.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down over-the-board (OTB) play last year, corporate chess was in full swing. The NYC Corporate Chess League had just concluded its second fall season, finishing on a high note with a highly anticipated closing ceremony.
The second NYCCL season built off the successful formula of its first season: six matches played on a bi-weekly schedule at the law offices of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, between three-player teams hailing from eminent firms, banks, and corporations in New York City: Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Debevoise & Plimpton, Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, Google, JPMorgan Chase, RBC Capital Markets and Two Sigma.
The NYCCL met with resounding success among the players, spectators, and guests, precisely because it offered the missing nexus between chess enthusiasts at corporate institutions, and a forum for sharing their passion for chess. The model of the NYCCL never had an entry fee or profit component. Rather, the players were eager to play for corporate pride, along with the opportunity to forge new connections both internally and externally.
But when OTB play ceased, the future of corporate chess went up in the air. Sure, it was possible to schedule a few online matches here and there, but it would be impossible to replicate the lively corporate atmosphere – or so I thought.
I was pleasantly surprised that around the fall of 2020, the idea for an online corporate chess league had sprung up from several different organizers, each of whom independently saw the same silver lining opportunity: Taking corporate chess online offered scheduling flexibility for busy professionals and reinforced internal team building, during a time when remote work detracted from in-person interaction. Further, it allowed the opportunity to loop in colleagues from global offices who would otherwise never participate in local OTB events.
After conferring internally with my team at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, we saw the value proposition and were on board.
“Debevoise is proud to continue its support of the corporate chess community by participating in the online chess leagues during the pandemic,” said Debevoise corporate partner Andrew M. Ahern. “Playing online has enabled a Debevoise team composed of lawyers and staff across departments and offices to join together in a way that would have been impossible with strictly in-person competition.”
FIDE World Corporate Online Team Championships
The first online competition Debevoise entered was the inaugural FIDE World Corporate Online Team Championships, February 19-21, 2021. Naturally, the prestige of having the governing international chess body of FIDE back a world championship event was a major draw. Personally, I also appreciated that it was played over the span of a single weekend, which made scheduling around the matches easier.
The FIDE event used a 10+2 time control, with a single game played during each team match-up. There were three matches scheduled on each Friday and Saturday, with the top-finishing team from each division advancing to Sunday playoffs. Due to our assigned time zone, the western conference games were played from 8:30 p.m. ET until around 12:30 a.m.
FIDE had clearly put a lot of thought into the team composition and scheduling logistics before the event. They used similar rules as the 2020 online Chess Olympiad structure, with each team required to have at least one female player. Having strong female representation was not an issue with the NYCCL teams, with half the team captains as women and a strong female turnout on the top boards.
My initial concern with FIDE’s female requirement was that teams would circumvent this rule by listing a female as a reserve, but never play her in the event. However, the FIDE organizers assured me — and in fact updated their rules to make this explicit — that a female player was required to be on the main four-player team composition for each round.
Impressive was FIDE’s quick and thorough responsiveness in fielding questions from multiple teams. Given this was an inaugural event with novel team and tech requirements, the multitude of questions and concerns the organizers had to address were no doubt plentiful, and their attention to detail translated into a smooth handling of the matches themselves.
Players were required to be on Zoom at least 30 minutes before the round. During the game, pursuant to the Fair Play measures, everyone’s webcam, microphone, and screen-share all had to be turned on simultaneously. Initially the tech requirements were intimidating, but eventually we got used to it and forgot Zoom was even on.
FIDE deployed a far-reaching staff of international arbiters devoted to the event, including an arbiter assigned to each breakout room to oversee tech and pairing issues, and other organizers on standby in busy WhatsApp group chats to answer questions.
In lieu of official entry fees, the FIDE event encouraged corporate donations to FIDE’s non-profits: the Chess Veterans Support program and the Chess in Education programs for kids.
As incentive, FIDE gave away a special VIP package to the 2021 World Chess Championships in Dubai to the corporate team which raised the most, with an online simul against Russian GM Ian Nepomniachtchi as the winner of the 2021 FIDE Candidates Tournament. This incentive arguably exceeded the official prize awarded to the top-four finishing teams.
The prestige of the event, coupled with a low barrier to enter, was among the factors that resulted in a massive registration of 288 total teams from 78 different countries. FIDE allowed each team one player from outside of the company, which resulted in the participation of the world’s chess elite, including GM Anish Giri, who played for Optiver, and Nepomniachtchi, who played for Sberbank. Notably, World Champion Magnus Carlsen himself participated on behalf of Kindred Group, one of his corporate sponsors.
The Debevoise team included myself on the top board, our senior tax associate attorney David Rock, and two newcomers, litigation associate Erik Rubinstein and litigation analyst Bas Munnik. We were rounded out by our seasoned outside player, GM-elect Raja Panjwani. Corporate staff attorney Aleksei Romanovski served as co-captain.
The western conference division featured well-known companies such as Microsoft (Redmond), Amazon, Deloitte, and Workday. Debevoise was even paired against its fellow NYCCL team, Goldman Sachs in round two.
“While it has been challenging more recently to facilitate over the board chess, this past year has presented a unique opportunity to bring more chess enthusiasts together online in a way that’s easily accessible. We’ve actually seen interest in the game explode,” said Alexandra Wiener, the team captain of Goldman Sachs and co-founder of the NYCCL. “At Goldman specifically, I’m proud that the team has continued its momentum off the back of winning the NYCCL in 2019, by putting up a good, competitive fight in the recent (and first of its kind) online World Corporate Chess Championships.
“I’m equally proud of the work the team’s been able to facilitate off the board — where we’ve built upon the community-building started by the NYCCL, and have focused our internal efforts on fundraising and volunteering with Chess in the Schools, a non-profit focused on using chess as an education tool to support low-income youth.”
Although I am still getting used to rapid time controls and online play, I did manage to get a serious game in my pet Advance French gambit line, which I have covered extensively in Chess Life:

I covered it previously for Chess Life magazine (10/2015) and chess.com.} Nc6 { This may appear to be consolidating, but is not the most challenging way to play against the gambit. White's pieces quickly spring into action, and the knight on c6 becomes a thorn in Black's side.} (9... Nxf3+ 10. Nxf3 Bc5 { Accelerating development, is a more critical line.}) 10.

Our first-round jitters wore off as the games progressed and, by the second day, we were comfortable with the format. The stringent Zoom requirements, fixed round times, presence of arbiters, and the caliber of the players helped replicate a true OTB tournament atmosphere – almost to the point where I was preparing before the matches and analyzing afterwards late into the night, as if I were in tournament mode. Because the standings were calculated by total game points (as opposed to team match points), every result on every board counted. Out of 26 teams in the Western division, Debevoise finished tied for sixth with 13.5/24.
The winner of FIDE’s World Corporate Online Team Championships was Grenke Bank AG, headquartered in Baden-Baden, Germany and spearheaded by power couple GM Georg Meir and WIM Inna Agrest.
CEA Global Chess League
Though Debevoise did not advance to FIDE's playoffs, the event prepared us well for a second league in which we participated: the inaugural season of the Corporate E-Sports Association (CEA) global online chess league. Playing weekly from mid-February to mid-May 2021, the prolonged duration of this league intended to encourage friendly and sustained team participation during the spring season.
As webcams are not required, the CEA league depends on an honor system of abiding by the Fair Play standards. League games were played with a 7+2 time control, with a twist that everyone plays everyone on the four-player teams. The rule eases the strain of selecting precise board requirements when players’ online ratings may not be a reliable indicator of strength or are in constant flux. The winning team of each match is determined by the most points out of 16 possible game points. As the games went quickly, the players were eager to play more chess and appreciated the opportunity to fit in four serious games in quick succession. We found that, with no tech issues, an entire match ran under 1.5 hours.
The CEA league is co-organized by the Washington State Chess Federation and by Florian Helff, a Twitch Software Development Engineer II and head of the Amazon Chess Club. Given the West Coast presence, the CEA league’s participants included powerhouse companies such as Amazon, Boeing, Facebook, Twitch, and Microsoft.
“I've personally been involved with CEA’s League of Legends tournaments for the past few years playing for Twitch and Amazon, and greatly enjoyed them,” Helff said. “The way that CEA uses games as a platform of common interest to promote networking and charity offers a lot of opportunities, and I proposed to the CEA to expand to chess for the Spring 2021 season.
“Using a tournament format and chess community I have been building locally in Seattle, and taking it to a national level, was a big step but it has paid off so far. The CEA Chess community is already one of the biggest charitable contributors across the whole CEA.”
The CEA league is a not-for-profit enterprise. With 36 teams entered in this inaugural season and an entry fee of $160 per team, the prize pool of nearly $6,000 will be allocated according to charities chosen by the top-three placing teams. Debevoise is proud to be playing for the USCF Women in Chess Initiative, which encourages female participation and retention in chess.
I have been impressed with the responsiveness of the CEA organizers and their commitment to ensuring that all match format requirements are as flexible as possible for busy corporate players, while preserving the integrity of the game. (The detailed CEA league rules are available here). The organizers even built out a custom, private tournament portal for issuing game challenges on chess.com, recording game results, and updating the pairings and standings.
The CEA playoffs are in a knockout format spanning April through May, with a match default time of Saturdays at 1:00 p.m. ET. A major draw of the league is being able to reschedule the match for any point during the week: We tend to prefer weekday evening matches and were pleased to find many of the teams amenable to rescheduling. Each week, a featured match or two is broadcast live on the CEA Twitch channel, with coverage by streamers such as WCM Liza McDonald, IM Alex Banzea, and a secondary broadcast by “Coach Ryan” Ackerman.

Black lacks any direct targets.} e6 8. a3 { An interesting prophylactic idea to stop black from playing Bb4 and intervening with the Bd2-Nc3 battery. However, it is not strictly necessary. a3 is always possible to play afterwards; black is loathe to exchange the Bishop for the knight on c3, which has moved only once, and would allow white's dark-squared bishop to step into the game with a tempo.} Nbd7 9. O-O c5 $2 {Right idea, but played at the wrong time. In general, black should be aiming for e5 or c5 breaks against this structure in the Scandinavian.

After completing seven regular season weekly matches, Debevoise finished a solid ninth place and sailed into a postseason for the top 24 teams, though we just missed out on a first-round bye given to the top-eight teams.
We won our first playoff match and advanced to a 16-team bracket. From there, we won again by the slimmest of margins, needing an additional tiebreak match of 5+2. As one of eight teams remaining, we were paired against the top team in the league – the Amazon Aardvarks. With only six titled players in the CEA league, the Aardvarks alone boasted three of those titles: GM Mauricio Flores, WGM Shrook Wafa, and FM Matthew Hassen. (The other titled players were GM Francesco Rambaldi with Microsoft, FM Thomas Ulrich with Facebook, and myself.)
Alas, this matchup was the final showing for team Debevoise. Given the all-play-all format, we could not keep up with the points amassed by the titled players. But if we were to get knocked out, we were glad to bow out honorably against the highest-ranked team.
Next Steps for Corporate Chess
Both the FIDE and CEA championships were played on Chess.com, which provides an accessible and intuitive platform for organizing internal corporate tournaments. First, nearly all members already had a Chess.com account going into the season, which substantially decreased the learning curve. In fact, many of the Debevoise team players collectively had tens of thousands of online games already under their belts – though I, coming exclusively from OTB play, had a lot of catching up to do.
We expect that online corporate team play is here to stay, in some form. Exactly how and to what extent remains to be seen. My overall impression is that even though there were some losses in corporate participation, this year of online corporate team play opened up competition to a new audience, and further highlighted novel avenues that should be considered part of an overall corporate team culture. I am hopeful that the new interest and online features explored this year will continue into a bright future for corporate chess.
Helff adds: “Chess is off to a great start with the CEA, and plans for summer and fall seasons to further grow the corporate chess community are in the works. The CEA believes in chess as a platform to not only play a couple fun games, but also use this common interest to make meaningful connections within your own company and among the other competing companies. This is also a main reason why our tournaments are played as true team competitions and not by accumulating individual scores. Looking back at the successful spring season and hearing many anecdotes from people networking has us motivated even more to create awesome content in the future.”
You can catch the CEA league final match this Saturday, May 15 at 1:00 p.m. ET, live with coverage streaming on the CEA Twitch!
