Chess at the 2019 Southeast Asian Games was the first SEA Games tournament since the 2013 edition in Naypyidaw. Chess will feature seven team events. Among these events are men's and women's blitz, rapid and standard while other categories such as bullet, lightning, armageddon and the Asian chess are also under consideration for inclusion. The National Chess Federation of the Philippines originally planned to host individual events but scrapped such plans.[1] Chess is being held from 1 to 8 December 2019.[2]
