Welcome to the Canterbury Chess Club website! This site is designed for members of the club, but hopefully other players will find it useful, too.
Please note that because all of our equipment (and a fair number of members) will be in Kaikoura for the 2008 South Island Championships, the clubrooms will be closed on Wednesday, October 8 and Friday, October 10 and the Grim Reaper is cancelled. The club will be open as normal for the Club Championships beginning on Wednesday, October 15.
The links to the left are fairly self-explanatory. The Junior link is the door to another section of the site, where you can find the latest information on Friday evenings at the Club, as well as the next junior tournament.Results for tournaments from the current year can be found on our tournaments page, and results from previous years are available on our results page.
For information on other clubs in New Zealand, try the official website of the New Zealand Chess Federation.
If you have any questions, either about the club, or about the junior programme we have in place, please don't hesitate to contact our Secretary, Craig Hall.
