Club Night

We meet every Monday night at 7.15pm at the Poole Centenary Club.
This location is ideal for us in many ways, it is large, comfortable, friendly, welcoming and central to Poole, with bus and rail stations close by.
Our aim is to expand our membership, young and old alike, as well as retaining existing players.
Poole Chess has a long history of league and competitive chess and has a reputation as being a welcoming and friendly arena for all levels of chess players. All chess players are welcome.

We have 7 teams altogether competing in the B&DCL and the Dorset league which runs from October to May. The fixture list for all club matches are published on the LMS website
results and reports of our club’s matches will be posted after each event.
Good luck to all Captains and the teams taking part.

We pride ourselves on offering chess at all levels and this season we have several members that just wish to play social chess over a drink and a chat. It maybe as a result of the hugely popular film ‘Queens Gambit’ being released during lockdown but it seems there is a renewed interest in people returning to chess.

If you have any questions please contact me and I look forward to seeing you at the club.
This is just a welcome start for those that are ready and comfortable to meet now.
