“

When I started SMC Chess Club in 2020, I had one simple goal. I wanted every child to feel the joy of learning this beautiful game.

Chess gives children focus, patience, and confidence. It teaches them to think before they act. I wanted to pass that gift on.

We welcome every child, at every level, including those who learn differently. There is always a seat at our board. I look forward to meeting your family soon.
