Activities
On Mondays, we hold regular chess tournaments for members and invited guests. Most are one classical game per night although some are rapid events with several games played over the evening. For a schedule of these tournaments please see our Calendar. Most of our events are FIDE- and nationally rated.
On Saturdays, we run a junior chess club from 5:00pm till 6:15pm.
For those who can’t play on Mondays, we also run ACC Double Weekends, a series of two-weekend classical chess events to fit on normal weekends, for all players to get more practice and rated games.
We also participate in Interclub chess tournaments between other Auckland chess clubs and host tournaments during weekends and holidays.
Annual Subscriptions
Monday nights — NZD 20 per event (no full amount registration for the year like before). ACC Double Weekends — NZD 30 for an individual event. Saturday nights (Junior Club) — NZD 40 per school term.
Event registration is done electronically via TryBooking since 2024. No bank transfers.
