Our Mission
As a club is to promote increased knowledge and understanding of the game of chess as an art and as an intellectual sport. The Swieqi Chess Club seeks to foster the development of its members as chess players and enhance their appreciation of the game. The Sweqi Chess Club would like to work in association with schools (primary and secondary) and local councils in order to further promote chess to the general public, especially the next generation of young chess players. If there are any schools (Government, Private or Church) or local councils who would like to introduce chess to their schools or to the general public please contact us.
