ALL ARE Welcome
We meet at the English Martyrs Church Community Hall , 37 Frindsbury Road, Rochester, ME2 4JA. Club nights are now held every Wednesday from 7.45pm. If you play online like Chess.com or Lichess come and put your skills to the test play chess over the board. Feel the presence of another human being and experience fun and joy at the board versus a 'lifeless' computer screen !

Medway Chess Club
The aims and objectives of Medway Chess Club are to promote the playing, studying and
understanding the game of chess at all levels. This includes the organisation of local playing
facilities and the provision of coaching for members of all abilities.
The club prides itself in creating a warm and welcoming environment and membership is
open to all persons irrespective of gender, nationality, religious opinion, race or colour. It is
particularly open to young persons and those with disabilities.
We are affiliated to both the Kent County Chess Association (KCCA) and the English Chess
Federation (ECF) who are the governing bodies in Kent and the UK respectively. We
currently enter five teams in competitive matches organised by the aforesaid organisations
and also play informal non-competitive matches between members on our regular club
nights.
The club is very much a valuable community based organisation attracting members from all
across Medway, including the Hoo Peninsula, which is often an area which is under
represented. As such it helps to serve the needs of a diverse community including social
inclusion and everyday social interactions.
