For six years, Cambridge City Chess Club and Cambridge University Chess Club have organised an annual Town v Gown match - a friendly chess match between the two clubs. Everyone is welcome to play regardless of playing strength, and the more players we have the better!

The event will be held at the Cambridge City Chess Club on Richmond Road on Weds 30th April from 7:30pm.

Each player plays two games (one white, one black) at 30 mins per player. We also change opponents between rounds so that everyone gets two games against different opponents (i.e. boards 1 & 2 will swap; boards 3 & 4 will swap; etc.). All the games will be quickplay graded.

It is a social evening, great fun, and food and drinks will be provided too! It's all free (!) so please email us if you would like to participate, telling us whether you would be eligible to also play for the University if required.

We hope to see you on April 30th!
