Competitions
For those of you who are interested in playing competitive chess we have a number of options.
League Chess
The Club enters two teams in the Bournemouth and District Chess League. In 2018-19, these will compete in Divisions 2 & 4. We have also entered a combined team with the Highcliffe Chess Club in Division 5 to give an opportunity to less experienced players to play competitive chess against opponents of a similar standard.
More information on the B&DCL can be found at http://www.dorsetchess.co.uk.
Internal tournaments
We also have internal tournaments which comprise a knockout tournament for all members and an all-play-all tournament for our stronger players.
External Tournaments
Some members also enter a number of chess congresses each year on an individual basis. Some are local events within Dorset and others are further afield.
