Welcome!

We are an active, welcoming chess club in Edinburgh.

We are located at Slateford Bowling club, where we have access to a spacious playing hall.

As well as playing in the Edinburgh League, we are actively running club nights with club championship, lightning and social chess games available.

The chess club has reopened again for season 2025-26 with two graded friendlies being played.

We won 4-2 against Edinburgh in the semi final of the Summer Plate.

It was 4½-2½ on handicap score.

Corstorphine were again the visitors to compete for the Brian Wurr Memorial trophy.
