These are the Legionnaires of the Grand Unicorn Chess Masters League — the strongest young players in the country by published US Chess rating. The list is set annually against published rating thresholds and results in open competition, and holds for the whole of that year.
Ratings and results are taken from published US Chess data. If you are a parent on this list and would prefer your child not be shown, write to nexus@gucml.com and we will remove them the same day.
