Schools’ League

We operate a chess league for primary schools in Nottinghamshire. If you run a local school chess club and would like to join the league, please get in touch.

The main league is for Under 11s, with additional opportunities for Under 9s to play in tournaments.

Schools currently involved are:

  • The Elms
  • The Fernwood School
  • Gotham Primary School
  • Langar Church of England Primary School
  • Nottingham Girls’ High School
  • Nottingham High Infant and Junior School
  • Old Basford School

Upcoming Fixtures

Our final two Under 11 rounds and prize giving will take place on Tuesday 20th May 2025, 4:15pm – 6pm at The Elms Junior School.

There will also be an Under 9 teams tournament on Thursday 5th June 2025. The aim is to give younger players a chance to play some competitive games in a learning environment.
