Welcome to Newmarket Chess Club
(latest update 8th May 2009)
We play in the Bury Area league, and meet at the Forester's club on Tuesday Evenings at 7.30pm. We are always looking for more players, as we enter either one or two teams into the league depending on how many active players we have.
There are now three divisions in the Bury league.
The 2008/9 season was slightly disappointing despite the highlight of getting to the semi final of the Roger Goldsmith Champagne Tournament (Newmarket Darkhorses) , we landed slightly adrift at the bottom of division 2, so will be plying our trade in division 3 next season.
