Lewes Chess Club meets at St. Mary's Supporters Club every Tuesday from 7.30 - 11.00.

Players of all ages and abilities are welcome, from novice to expert.

We have a lively programme of internal competition, including an annual Quick-Play Tournament, a Club Championship, and as many friendly games as you like. Social chess can be played in the bar area, in the garden if the weather allows, or in a quiet room if preferred. Three five-player teams catering for all abilities in the club are fielded in different divisions of the Mid Sussex Chess League consisting of a series of home and away fixtures played between the months of October and April. Additional inter-club competition, such as the Knock Out Cup, and the Paul Watson Trophy are also entered. All games played in the Club Championship, the Mid-Sussex Chess League, and in other competitions organized by the latter or the Sussex County Chess Association are sent for official English Chess Federation grading.

We are a friendly chess club. New members always welcome. For all enquiries, including membership rates, please contact Matthew Britnell on 01273-470330 or email mjbritnell@onetel.com.
