Welcome to the UEA Chess Society!

Cogito ergo vinco

 

Keep in touch through our Instagram: @chess.uea or via our website.

 

The UEA Chess Society exists to promote the game of chess within the University of East Anglia. The Society welcomes players with all levels of experience, from absolute beginners to experienced players. We offer a friendly and constructive atmosphere to play in, along with an active and varied social scene, that includes regular sober social events. We also regularily hold collaboration events with other groups, including chess societies at other universities. 
We currently have a team playing in the Norfolk County Chess Association's Invitation Only League, headed up by our Captain Nik Elliot.
 
We are proudly sponsored by Chess4Schools and can offer discounts on their products to all our members.

We usually meet on a Monday, from 6pm to 8pm in NEWSCI 0.07.
