Modbury Chess Club

Modbury Chess Club is a friendly chess club, meeting in Modbury North, in the north east of Adelaide, South Australia. We meet to play all kinds of chess, including Lightning (aka Blitz), Rated Interclub matches, Fixed Opening matches and more.

We also host frequent chess events such as tournaments and lectures from the masters. Stay tuned to our calendar to see what is coming up. Or even better, come join us and we'll tell you in person! Everyone is welcome and we'd love to see you for a game or three :)

Fees

Fees are very simple. The first visit is FREE. After that, you purchase attendance packs which makes you a member, or you pay a casual rate.

Membership	Attendances	Fee	Price Per Attendance
Rhodium	50	$300.00	$6.00
Platinum	24	$150.00	$6.25

Attendances remaining do NOT expire.
Any remaining attendances will carry forward when purchasing another membership.
Membership status expires at the end of the calendar year, however, simply attending the club while having attendances remaining will automatically renew your membership for the year.
Casual attendances do not grant membership status, which is required to claim club titles, such as "club champion".

We strongly prefer cashless payments.

We aim to start tournaments at 7:30pm sharp so it's best to be there no later than 7:15pm.
If you turn up after that, you may not be able to play since the night's tournament may already be under way.
In other words, DON'T BE LATE!!

Please be familiar with our Club Rules.
