SYSTON CHESS CLUB(Refounded 1980)

The club meets every Tuesday at the Syston & District Social Club, and offers a warm welcome to anyone who can or wishes to learn to play chess.

One of the members is an English Chess Federation Accredited Coach and is the holder of an enhanced CRB clearance. His services are available to all members without charge; he also offers his services on a similar basis to local schools.

The club participates in the local Leicestershire Chess League, with a fair degree of success and is the only Leicestershire Club to have won two national tournaments, in which we continue to participate.

The club is well stocked with equipment, and has access to the best chess library in the county.

The club’s excellent reputation is nationwide, hosting several National Club finals and very many National County Championship quarter and semi-final matches.

If you want to enjoy the oldest board game in the world, and enjoy an excellent venue with good company, please pay us a visit or contact one of the officers listed below.
