We are a friendly group of chess players of all ages, from 7 to 70+, who love to play, learn and talk about chess.
Most new players to the club start with casual chess and progress to playing in one of our many teams, either online or over the board.
Everyone at the club is more than happy to help each other become better chess players.
If you live or work within reach of Stroud, then this chess club is for you!
