South Shields Chess Club

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

The season is coming to a close now , this week will see the final two games played by the B team , away to Tynemouth on Tuesday and Home to Tynedale on Thursday .

Paul Bielby is heading the Sell Tournament with one game to go and Eddie Czestochowski is joint top in the Gilroy  Tournament facing a game against the indefatigable Bill Noble to decide the winner .

Our own Club competitions are getting to the final stages , so if you are still involved then please make arrangements to play your remaining games.

It seems that there is a desire to organise a Fide Blitz event , a half day event planned for 8th July at The Customs House .. more details will follow .
