    • Hi Derin, Apologies for missing this until now – I didn’t realise I needed to approve comments before they became visible. If you are still looking for a chess club then please use the contact us https://bonaccordchess.wordpress.com/contact-us/ which will put us in touch via email. I respond to that very promptly and would have to your comment had I seen it.
      Best wishes,
