Happy 2025 and Welcome to Pebworth Chess Club!
We meet every first and third Tuesdays of each month, in Mary's Room at the Pebworth Village Hall.
NB. Unfortunately we will be closed Tuesday 7th January due to the flooding of the surrounding areas, and even if not flooded it is expected to ice over in the evening.
Nice to see and play people at Pebworth Party in the Park on September 1st.
All are welcome, so if you’re a beginner, intermediate or been playing for years – come along for a game, to watch, teach, learn, natter, and have a lovely social night out. Evening starts at 18:45 and go on until about 21:00. Stay as long or as short as you like, and you don't have to turn up when it starts.
Entry £2 per adult for room hire,
Tea and coffee, plus occasionally biscuits or cake provided or bring your own refreshments.
Under 18s can play for free, but to cover the health and safety/ DBS checks - under 18’s or vulnerable adults must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Mary’s room is located at the back of the Village Hall, so please enter round the back, unless you want to join in with the Yoga Club round the front.
We have 5 full size chess sets, boards, and clocks for those who want to play, as well as various random sized sets from our personal collection for when we have more than ten players.
We also have an online chess club for Pebworth on chess.com for those who want to play online on other days of the week when we don't have the club open. See https://www.chess.com/club/pebworth-chess-club for more info
We were very glad to obtain support from PAL Community Interest Company who helped with room hire during our first few months.
We would recommend visiting their website https://pal-fitness-education.org.uk/ if you would like help starting up community projects, especially ones that help improve your physical or mental fitness.
