We are planning an exciting year of chess on the Gold Coast in 2023 and I wanted to invite you to play some great games at the clubs (Upper Coomera or Burleigh) or at our new weekend venue, the brand new Broadbeach Community Centre – next to Pacific Fair Shopping Centre. Our first event there will be on Sat April 1st, Broadbeach Rapid – FIDE Rated. We also have Junior Clubs running in 2023 at both Upper Coomera and Burleigh from week 3 to week 8, each term for $100/term ($80 for members).  I look forward to seeing you again this year.

2023 Club Nights Begin  6:30pm Tue 24/1 at Upper Coomera and Fri 27/1 at Burleigh Heads with Blitz Nights.

Our 3 Major Weekend Events in 2023 will be:

Sat April 1st – Broadbeach Rapid – FIDE Rated @ Broadbeach CC
Sat/Sun Sept 2 and 3 – Arianne Caoili Memorial – ACF Rated Classical – 6 Rounds @ Broadbeach CC
Sat Oct 28 – Coomera Halloween Rapid – FIDE Rated @ Upper Coomera Centre

We are a volunteer run not-for-profit chess club and can always use more help at our events. Would you like to be part of our GCCC team or even just assist casually?  Do you have a particular interest or skill that could help our club grow and thrive? From assisting setup, learning to be an arbiter, coordinating parent helpers, etc. We’d love for you to reach out and let us know by replying to this email or in person.

Warm Regards,
