Tactics Puzzles and Answers - Nov 08

How many members are in the Club?

We currently have around 20 regular members and always welcome any new additions.

 

How much does it cost to join?

The annual subscription fees are
Adult (Waged)....................................... £25
Adult (Concession)................................ £12
Adult (First Season).............................. £15
Juniors (Under 17)................................ nil

Adult Board Fees are £9 a month. Juniors pay £1 per night.

Attention New Members!! The first night is free as always, but a new 8-week trial period (to see if you like us) has now started. Instead of £9 a month, it's "pay-as-you-play" with £2 board fees only on the nights you turn up. The £15 annual fee for first year members doesn't even kick in till week 10 now, and depending on how far along the season is, it'll be in proportion to how many weeks are left. So drop in and try us out!
 

Does the Club play in a League?

The Club has teams in the Glasgow, Dunbartonshire and Lanarkshire Leagues, and we also play in the Scottish National Chess League.

 

What about Club Competitions?

There are 2 internal Club Competitions. The Wilson Trophy and the Club Championship. There are also ongoing performance competitions in the shape of The Gosetti and The Sword of Damocles. At the start of the season we have a 12-round Rapidplay tournament, the Autumn Cup. Details of these can be found from the menu bar above.
