St Kilda East Chess Club

St Kilda East Chess Club

Chess is the perfect way for older people to have fun and socialise with other people. The game is thought to help prevent Alzheimer’s or dementia. It’s a stimulating activity where you can enjoy thinking about strategies and logic. Beginners can learn the game with an international chess master and you can improve your skills to enjoy the game even more. Member benefits include discounts for Tuesday and Sunday tournaments and free coaching during the All Ages chess club. There is an affiliation with Chess Victoria and the Australian Chess Federation so if you feel competitive you can represent the club in competitions.
