Where minds meet and strategies unfold
What began as a few passionate games in a quiet café corner has become one of the most dynamic societies at Napier University. Napier Chess Club brings together strategists, thinkers, and learners—both casual and competitive—into one welcoming community.
With regular events, tournaments, and friendly meetups, we’ve created a space where every move matters—and every member counts.
Napier Chess Club began with a small group of enthusiasts meeting weekly for casual games.
We hosted our first internal blitz tournament — over 30 players competed!
Played and won against Stirling and Heriot-Watt in a friendly rapid showdown.
Launched our Discord server and began hosting hybrid online + offline events.
