We are delighted to announce the launch of weekend training sessions for anybody aged 7 to 15 years who is interested in taking part and already is able to play chess, sorry no beginners please.
Click here for the chess training leaflet.
A variety of coaches will be used for these training sessions to enable participants to obtain a broad range of knowledge, skills and advice.
The number of applicants in a group is limited to around 12 applicants. If there is enough applicants we will have more than one group and coach.
There is a limited number of spaces for each session, but since there are five or six each term, children should get a chance to take part in one or other session.
The sessions will all take place either Saturday or Sunday and either from 10am to 1pm or 12pm to 3pm to give everybody a fair chance to take part around their other commitments.
Venue: Claremont Room, King George’s Hall, 1 High Street, Esher, Surrey KT10 9SD.
Cost: £35 for each child per session.
Discount: Current Wey Valley Squad Members Receive a 15% Discount.
n.b. To qualify for the discount you need to select your child’s name from the list in the application form below and pay the full fee under the form. Once verified, we will issue you a 15% refund which may take up to 40 days to go through.
