Huddersfield Grosvenor Rapidplay - 29th April 2012
Huddersfield Chess Club
Formed in 1852, the Huddersfield Chess Club is one of the longest running clubs in England and is still a very active club supporting all levels of player.
The Club meets every week running many internal tournaments with trophies to play for. Teams are entered in to the Yorkshire League, the HDCA League and the Calderdale League so there is plenty of playing opportunities for all members.
Coaching is also available through our training days with Nigel Davies GM.
For juniors, there is the Huddersfield Junior Chess Club who meet every week during school term times.
The Club also runs a 3 day Congress, Rapidplay and Blitz tournaments during the year.

The small print .....
Unfortunately NO juniors allowed due to casino rules and for security purposes entrants must also become a member of the casino but there are no obligations and membership can be cancelled after the event - joining only requires proof of age with photo ID (e.g. passport or drivers licence) and can be quickly done on the day!
New Club Night
Our new Club night of Fridays at the Ukrainian Club is so far proving to be having the desired effect with attendance levels being far higher. The main Club now meet from 7.30pm after the juniors who meet from 6:30 - 8:00pm.
