The Mississippi Chess Association is the organization that promotes chess in the state and organizes tournaments and events for players of all skill levels. The association has been active since at least the 1970s, and it has been instrumental in promoting the game across the state, especially in schools and universities.
In recent years, Mississippi has produced a number of talented chess players, including National Master John R. Smith, who has represented the state in several national and international tournaments. Additionally, the state has hosted several major chess tournaments, such as the Deep South Open.
