East Cheshire Chess Club currently has around twenty players on its membership list, but the premises and club activities would easily accommodate more. So if you are interested in playing, whether just friendly matches or in club competitions, all played on Wednesday evenings throughout the year, or if you are keen for a team place to play in inter-club matches, come along one evening and make yourself known, or contact Roy Burrows (0161 485 3988) for further information. Membership fees for the period September 2nd, 2009 to May 26th, 2010, will be unchanged at £22.50 for adults (£12 if under-16).
Summer membership has, for the past few years, also been available at a cost of £3 per evening up to a limit of £15 during the period June 1st and July 29th, 2009.
The point to emphasise is that you are very welcome to come along and try us out for a couple of evenings. Don't be put off by the quiet atmosphere, the battles taking place across the boards can be both exciting and informative! If you feel unsure whether your standard of play is good enough, come along anyway and we will try and help you to improve your game. Playing chess on the internet or against your computer is OK - but chess is much more fun when you can see your opponent across the board!
