At the Auckland Chess Centre, we run an Adult Improvers Night on Tuesdays from 7:00pm to 9:00pm.
Contact: Brogan – BPowlesland@hotmail.com
We are currently working through a variety of chess books, alternating between advanced tactics, endgame technique, and positional understanding. The class is focused on students with a rating between 1400 and 1600.
Frequently Asked Questions
I’d like to join!
That’s great! Please let Brogan know in advance – we’d love to have you involved.
Can I turn up to play chess?
This is a class-based format. While some people play some casual blitz (speed chess) before and after the class, our main chess night is on Monday night.
Why adults only?
Well, we already have a Junior Night, and we noticed across Auckland that there are already quite a few events that cater towards improving juniors, but few opportunities directed at improving adults.
Improving juniors and adults learn in different ways, and have different strengths. While juniors tend to pick up new concepts quickly, adults often benefit from a more patient approach.
Do you have parking?
Of course! You’re more than welcome to use our car park area.
