What we’re about
Hi, this is a flourishing group for anyone who wants to play chess, and make friends with other enthusiasts. Our meetings are very informal and welcome players of all ages and levels. Just turn up and ask someone for a game. If you can bring a chess set, that's a help, but we do have them — and clocks if you want one.
Our main event is on Sunday at Mercato Metropolitano's MMy Elephant Park close to the Elephant and Castle.
There are also other events during the week at other locations run by different hosts.
For the Sunday event, you can follow us on Instagram here. You can also join us on [chess.com here](https://www.chess.com/club/london-chess-club-elephant-and-the-castle) for online tournaments.
If you wish to support the club, please donate here to help us purchase more boards and pieces as the club continues to grow.
If you are also interested in getting more involved in the club, please come and talk to Darryl, Harry, or Jim, or contact us in the Organizers team. We are always looking for people to help us host events and promote the club online through Instagram or other sites or by taking photographs or videos. If you have ideas for fundraising or sponsorship, please let us know.
See you soon.
