Club Advise, Pointers?

Submitted by Knightly on Fri, 06/27/2008 at 2:54pm.

As our monthly chess meeting rolls up, I have so much work to do! I am the founder and chairperson of the association. I have so many things that I must get done; I never thought managing a small chess club would be such a difficult task. And I don’t even know whether I’m making the club a success, or failing dismally. We are still very new, and this will be our first chess tournament meeting. Hopefully it will be a success, and we can gain in numbers.

- I would like to hear about other chess clubs and see how they are doing, and exchange tips on managing a chess club. If you are a member, have been a member, or are the chairperson or one of the board members at a chess club, please tell me a little about how you make your club tick.

Thanks all for reading my blog, and please, enjoy your time on Chess.com!

Basically u have to be active in it. play and have fun and be nice to new commers hahahaha
