South Shields Chess Club

We have moved to The Customs House and no longer are playing at the New Ship.

South Shields had a good night of Chess at Peterlee ,last Tuesday 2nd February , our teams are sitting at the top of the league after rounds three and four and it looks like we will probably have to face each other in the final rounds.The Ron Evers RapidPlay competition is run on a handicap basis , and our teams have been organised such that they are actually fairly evenly matched so it will very interesting to see the outcome.  The final rounds are due to be played on the 14 th of March .
