WELCOME TO THE ST JOHN'S CHESS CLUB OF NORWICH - EST. 1992
"Often outgraded, never outfunned"

St. John’s Chess Club meets all year round at 7:30 pm on Thursdays, upstairs in The Coachmakers Arms, 9 St Stephens Road, Norwich NR1 3SP.

The club was founded in 1992 and currently has 30 members aged from early 20s to 70ish. Club members play in league games, in competitions or just for enjoyment. There's no set finish time, but we usually wrap up at around 10.30ish. Please note we do play upstairs and there is unfortunately no lift for wheelchair users - however, games can be played downstairs in the pub, but it is obviously a noisy environment.

We play in ther Norfolk League and take part in standardplay, Rapid and Blitz Competitions all year around.
