The junior club will be starting again in Autumn 2025.
Please check back nearer the time for details.
During the Spring term, Bedford Junior Chess Club met from 6:00 to 7:00pm on Thursdays during term time.
The cost was reduced to £25 for the 2025 Spring term.
We met at the same place as the adult club which is North End Social Club – see the venue page for details.
Ages 8 to 14 – all abilities welcome. All newcomers must first complete Junior Registration.
The junior club has its own Facebook page.
In relation to junior chess, the following policies have been adopted by the club:-

Hi there,
My son is 6 years old and he is good at chess as of now and interested to join the club. Hence would like to enquire about the place in the chess club.
Please advise.
Regards
Ram
I am afraid 6 is too young for our club Ram. It presents practical problems that we cannot really manage. I suggest chesskid.com to keep them going for now …
