50th Dandenong Club Championship – 2023

From our Humble Beginnings in 1972, drawn together with the excitement of the World Chess Championship match of that year, a small group of Chess Enthusiasts gathered together to plan the Makings of a Chess Club.

That first Meeting took place in early 1973, with Bobby Fischer having been crowned World Champion a few months earlier.

On behalf of our current Committee and all 49 previous Committees we would like to invite all of you to join our 50th club championship.
