The London Chess League is launching a new London Secondary Schools League this autumn, which will run over the winter months. This is a major initiative being run on a trial basis this season with six schools, with a mixture of state and private schools, open to all secondary pupils from these schools. We intend to expand it in the future.

If the school with which you are a chess teacher/ supervisor has an interest in your school playing in future seasons, please contact Matt Hortin of King’s College School, Wimbledon (matthortin@hotmail.com).
