Queens Chess Club

Welcome to the Queens Chess Club!

PLEASE READ!  We receive a lot of emailed questions that already have answers on this page.

Where we meet:
All Saints’ Lutheran Church (basement)
164-02 Goethals Avenue
Jamaica NY 11432

Club Telephone number:
for last-minute changes (ie: cannot play a round, need a bye, arriving late, etc.)

Forfeits: A player who doesn’t request a bye and fails to appear will be charged with a forfeit loss and a $5 fine.  The fine will be increased on players who repeatedly fail to notify in advance.  Remember that a forfeit by you deprives another player of a game.

When we meet: We meet ONLY on Friday nights.  Registration for our events is from 7:00PM to 7:15PM with games starting promptly at 7:30PM.  Some nights the club will be closed due to church activities, especially around religious holidays.
