The 2025 event calendar tornelo registration is as follows (all Tuesdays unless noted). Also, all of our standard time period club games are both ACF and FIDE rated; these have a time setting of 90 minutes plus 30 seconds per move, unless otherwise noted.

Our rapid games have a time setting of 15 minutes plus 10 seconds per move.

Our blitz games have a time setting of 5 minutes plus 2 seconds per move.

Starting in 2025, our rapid and blitz events will be ACF and FIDE rated (different to the classic rating, If you or your opponent have a FIDE classical rating, you can use it to register/obtain a faster time control FIDE rating).

All games get underway by 7:30pm, or as soon as possible after this time, with a 30 minute forfeit period. We take member etiquette very seriously. Read the link to ensure you understand your responsibilities, if you cannot attend a round.

Thinking of coming along to check us out? Then check out the calendar below. Our rapid or blitz event nights are a good time to come. Our long-time frame events run 5 or 7 weeks, so coming on the first round of those events is a good idea

Please bring a pen for you to record your moves. Registration via tornelo is preferred – see the blue text link for the Tornelo registration for each event, where available. Ideally if you pre-register – just come along by 7:15pm before round 1 to get the administration stuff out of the way. If you can register and pay on the day via Tornelo we may be able to pair you, but not guaranteed.

Note: Starting in 2025, Non-members will incur a $5 fee to play in rapid or blitz events (free for members).

Please check out our membership page for how to become a member!

Skill level: You don’t need to be a champion player to join, but we are not really suited for raw beginners either. Someone with 6-12 months of casual chess experience should be fine.
