Southside Junior Chess Club

The Southside Junior Chess Club meets from 7.00pm to 9.00pm every Friday night during state school terms, in the Carindale Library Meeting Room, located in the Carindale Shopping Center at the corner of Creek and Old Cleveland Rds (see map below).

We run chess competitions every Friday night, and also provide coaching by two qualified and experienced coaches. All preschool and school age children are welcome, but it is recommended that they have at least a basic knowledge of the moves.

The first two nights are free, and then it costs $5 per night for members, and $7 per night for non-members, with a 12 monthly membership of $20.

The Carindale Library has moved to its temporary premises (as part of the re-development of the Carindale Shopping Centre). We will continue to meet in the temporary Meeting Room until March 16, 2012, after which we will be moving into the new Meeting Room in the new Carindale Library (no details available yet). Parking at the Carindale Shopping Centre will continue to be free after 6.00pm.
Parking for the temporary room is available in the Home and Leisure Centre.

The maps below show the current library location, and there is a link to pictures of the temporary meeting room, and the Home and Leisure Centre here.
