Wells Chess Club

Welcome to Wells Chess Club. We are a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting the joys and benefits of chess.

There are 25-30 members of Wells Chess Club with many regularly competing in the Somerset League as well as regional and national tournaments. Our players abilities range from beginners up to 2300. We're pleased to offer coaching from a FIDE trainer and current Somerset Champion, so no matter your skill level, we'll help you improve and have fun.

We are also now confirmed as an ECF Junior Development Pathway Club which is very exciting and see our Junior Club page for more details.

Join us at the White Hart on Sadler Street in Wells every Wednesday from 7.30pm, or attend our Junior Club meeting from 6pm to 7pm!
