Coventry Juniors Chess

PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW EMAIL ADDRESS

A fun session playing and receiving tuition on how to play chess, perfect for  School Years 3-9! Beginners welcome.

Junior Chess Club | Chess Clubs in Coventry

Sessions are 90 minutes, term time Tuesdays 4.30-6pm for £5 each week. Please click on the chess club calendar to see information of September dates. 

A typical week consists of 10-15 minutes instruction to the group (sometimes split into 2 groups) on the demonstration board, 10-15 minutes solving puzzles and half an hour to play games against other children paired by ability either through a ladder system or ongoing tournament.

The Junior club is currently taking bookings for this term. If you'd like to join the waiting list for the club please follow this link and fill out the google form:

and send an email to coventrychessclub@gmail.com

We may host a one-off tournament or holiday camp this year which we can keep you informed of but we are unlikely to have a space in our weekly session before September. If you'd like to go on a waiting list for September or to receive news of our other events then please email us at coventrychessclub@gmail.com and let us know:

  • Child's full name
  • Age
  • School 
  • Rough idea of the child's experience? Do they know how all the pieces move? Are they in a school club?
Coventry Juniors typical session

During the games the coaches and volunteers give advice to the players on moves they could have played when they see a big opportunity has been missed. During the session if we have children of different abilities or odd numbers of children then the children rotate playing against volunteers/coaches who give them instruction during the game.
