The SCC also competes in three divisions of the Southampton League. When the calendar permits we have convivial evenings with friendlies against neighbouring clubs and rapidplay, handicap and buzzer timed games.


Any chess player, of whatever ability, is welcome to visit the Club for an evening of chess with a view to possibly joining later. Membership fee is set at the AGM and for 2008 is £15 per year (£5 for Juniors to age 18). Membership is open to all. The clubrooom on the first floor but there is accommodation on the ground floor if access is an issue (please make the club secretary aware of your interest if these circumstances apply).

The venue is a ‘non-smoking’ one.
