A chess tournament is a series of chess games played competitively to determine a winning individual or team. Since the first international chess tournament in London, 1851, chess tournaments have become the standard form of chess competition among serious players.
However, this doesn't mean that all of the players are playing together on the same board (which would be known as a consultation match), but rather that the results of all games played by the team are added together to determine the overall match result. Team chess brings a new dynamic to chess competition.
