The East Glamorgan Chess ratings site has moved.

They can now be found at www.welshchessunion.uk/ratings/eastglam

We are looking for new players to join us for the current 2019/20 season.

If you’ve though about joining a chess club, don’t hesitate to get in touch!

The Bridgend Chess Club AGM has been set for 5th June 2017.

There’s been some changes in the league this season so I’ve created a map in Google Maps that provides the location and key contacts for each club in the East Glam League.

If any clubs in the league want to borrow this map for their own members, feel free to share it!

The new season has began! It’s not too late to get involved though, check out the Contact Us page for information on ways to get in touch.

After  a brief tenure apart, Bridgend  Central  Club and Bridgend Chess Club have decided to undergo a merger and operate as one club under the name Bridgend Chess Club. The merger will see old friends and new players join together to strengthen the club improving the longevity and visibility of Chess in Bridgend.

Bridgend Chess Club is now on Instagram @bridgendchessclub.

Well, another season is over with a mixed bag of results for Bridgend Chess Club.

Our Porthcawl team had a very tough season in Div. 2 and face relegation to be replaced by our A team that finished Div.3 in second place (0.5 points off first!) so have won a promotion.

Our B team that we use to develop our newest members finished Div.4 in the top half of table which is a fantastic result. We are still looking for new players to join our B team so if you fancy getting involved all the contact details can be found on the ‘contact us’ page.
