CHESS CLUB

The Chess Club has met continually at the St George Leagues Club since the 1960’s and the Primary Schools competition has been hosted since the 1990’s. We are always looking for new members. If you would like to join our Chess Club, come to our weekly Tuesday night meeting at St George Leagues Club. Here is some information on our fabulous Club.

When we meet:

Tuesday nights at 7-30pm

Where we meet:

Ask directions from the friendly door staff

Who can join:

Anybody with a basic chess knowledge of any age

Activities:

Tournaments run continuously. Also casual games are available to those who prefer a more relaxed night. Chess club membership is necessary to compete in tournaments

Membership:

Beside membership of the chess club, there is also a requirement to be a member of the St George Leagues Club. Underage membership requires a parent or guardian to be a Leagues club member.

Types of tournaments:

Chess clocks are used in all tournaments in the following categories. Lightning (10 minute game), for those nimble of hand and mind; Allegro (30 minute game); Rapid (1 hour game). Other tournaments are played on progressive time limits without an absolute time limit. Each player is responsible for the recording of moves in these games.

Inter club activities:

Each year our club competes with North Sydney Leagues Club on a home and away basis. Teams are sometimes entered in the NSW Chess Association grade matches.

Primary Schools competition:

Each year the St George Zone finals of the primary schools one day competitions is hosted at the club. The highest placed school teams go on to compete in the state finals. We hope to see you soon at the St George Leagues Chess Club. For the latest information and results, please check our webpage http://www.stgeorgechess.org/ and the newest chess club council newsletter
