About the club
Ealing is always looking for new members and offers a warm welcome to chess players of all strengths, nationalities and ages. Whether you are a keen amateur or a budding GM we want to hear from you. For seasoned players we can offer the opportunity of competitive chess in one of our eight league teams. Alternatively, if you just want to enjoy a game of social chess, there are always members happy to oblige with a game. Although we are not a club for complete beginners, we can promise that your chess will improve with regular practice against our stronger players.
