Established 1929 - Revived 2018
Junior Club
Epsom Junior Chess Club was launched in November 2019 and is run by the club's founder and 29-year-old president, Marcus Gosling. He is ably assisted by club secretary, David Flewellen. It is aimed at intermediate-level juniors aged 7-15.
Two back-to-back sessions take place on Thursday evenings from 6.45-7.45pm and 7.45-8.45pm in the Main Hall area of Epsom Christian Fellowship. Less experienced players attend the earlier session, whereas stronger juniors opt for the later session. Places are often very limited.
Sessions cost £6.50/pupil, paid on a termly basis. Parents of new pupils should get in touch with Marcus beforehand if they would like their children to join.
For beginner sessions, we recommend the classes at the excellent new Chessington Chess Club.
