At Musselburgh Chess Club, we participate in the Edinburgh Chess League and other leagues and tournaments that may arise throughout the year. Currently, we have one team competing in the Edinburgh Chess League, and we may enter a team in the Scottish National Chess League as well. To keep our members engaged and challenged, we organise an annual club championship. In the current season, we have divided the championship into two sections, with the top two players from each section advancing to the semi-finals.
This provides a competitive yet inclusive atmosphere for all our members.
