Chess IRL is community driven. Let's get together and play the right way! Real chess with real people and real pieces!

Who should join Chess IRL?
Absolutely everyone is welcome! All skill levels, especially beginners & newcomers! This is meant to be a casual, fun, and chill community for all participants.

How often does Chess IRL meet?
The goal of the group is to formally meet once weekly at minimum. I would appreciate feedback on this aspect from Chess IRL members.

Where will Chess IRL meet?
We currently meet every Sunday at 8 PM at Central Machine Works Brewery under the tree on the northside of the beer garden.

Do I need to bring any sets or clocks?
Chess IRL currently has 20 chess sets and 10 clocks. If events exceed that size then we will ask for participants to bring some extra sets.

Are there Any Dues or Fees for Chess IRL?
Chess is for everyone, therefore there will NEVER be any dues or fees required, ever! Donations in the form of communal chess sets & clocks, are welcome and would be very much appreciated.
