The Bunbury Chess Club is free and welcomes all ages and skill levels.
We have a good balance of casual nights if you want to meet new people and have a friendly game. Or tournament chess if you want to test your skills.
Visit us at Manea Senior College every Thursday night. We’re open from 5:30pm to 8:30pm, drop in anytime!
We are located in the library, it can be hard to find. It’s on the second level between the flag poles and the basketball courts, behind the painting of the black cockatoo.
We are a friendly bunch with a good range of abilities, and one thing in common: we’re continually learning and freely share our chess insights with each other.
If you have any questions, please contact Michael Molenaar on our Facebook group or email michaeljmolenaar1@gmail.com
