Welcome!

Hi all,

If you're reading this, chances are you signed up to Chess Soc at some point this week. I'd just like to quickly welcome you to the club, and give a few useful bits of info.

Our first club night will be next Tuesday, 28th of September. We play in the Hamilton building from 7 to 9 o'clock, directions can be found on the right hand side of this page.

We take anyone and everyone. We're happy to teach from scratch, coach players looking to improve, play practice games, blitz/suicide/swap chess, and anything else you can think of. And if you don't know what blitz, suicide and swap chess are, you'll just have to come and find out :)

Hopefully during the year there'll be a few videos, games, and other links of interest going up here, so keep an eye out. I'll get the ball rolling with this one, which I found quite interesting. It's a two part radio documentary including something on computers in chess.

I think that's all I need to say for now. Please do drop in to the club night next Tuesday, we'd love to see you there!

Till then,
Stephen
