Welcome
to the
Summerscale
Chess
Clubs website
|
This
website aims to provide information on all of the Summerscale Chess Clubs,
and interesting junior chess details.
Our
considerable experience working in schools throughout London has
shown that chess success leads to confidence and enthusiasm, which
transfer to many other fields of education. Chess teaches children
to think in a logical and mathematically structured manner. It also
encourages them to think for themselves and develop a healthy competitive
spirit.
Most
importantly, chess is fun. We run a fun chess competition at every
school, with trophies and medals for the winners. Each child will
additionally receive a certificate and another prize. Coupled with
this competition, all children will receive Grandmaster chess tuition.
Chess
is for all ages and abilities:

look forward to welcoming you to our chess clubs.
