Formed in 1929 - Revived in 2018

We are one of Surrey's most ambitious and fastest-evolving clubs. We welcome all players regardless of ability and would love you to come along and try out the club. You will improve in no time!

We are committed to achieving a more equal gender balance by providing women and girls with plenty of playing opportunities in a supportive environment. Our venue is fully wheelchair-accessible.

In a competitive sense, our long-term aim has been to win Division 1 of the Surrey Chess League and we achieved this for the first time in April 2024. However, most importantly, we are keen to support all members, including relative beginners and youngsters, to become an active part of our club and even captain one of our teams.

We run regular rapidplay and blitz tournaments, which are ECF-rated, allowing new members to integrate quickly and test their skills alongside more serious players and friends of the club. We also run a popular Epsom Club Championship knockout event throughout the season, as well as the 'Mike Wickham Trophy' to provide less experienced players with experience playing rated games using the regular Surrey League time control.

For SCCA league matches, our playing session starts at 7.30pm and ends at 10.30pm (unless otherwise agreed between match captains).
