If you wish to join Brewood Chess Circle, we look forward to seeing you.
We accept adults and children (both males and females) regardless of chess ability. The club also enjoys a social atmosphere and drinks are served at the bar.
There is usually at least one committee member at the club to welcome you and to answer questions that potential new members may have about the club. Even if there is not a match, usually at least half a dozen members turn up at the club. A mixture of playing games and mini coaching sessions such as common tournament openings and technical chess endgames are discussed.
Regardless of your existing skill level there are opportunities to discuss with existing members ways to improve your game.
