Society
Hello and welcome - all chess players - to the Chess Society!
This is the Chess Society, yes. But it's also a lot more than that.
We were established as a society in late 2022, so we're still learning how to do stuff.
Nevertheless, through beginner sessions, monthly tournaments, purple wednesdays and just meeting up to play chess, we are very tight-knit community that would love you to join us!
We are also 2024 South Coast Champions, beating the chess societies of Reading, Southampton, Sussex, Brighton and Bournemouth!
