Saturday Chess Club at the Discovery Center at Stony Point™ is a consistent, welcoming space for players to practice, improve, and stay connected to the game—whether they’re just starting out or already thinking several moves ahead.

Our club model balances guided learning, peer matchups, and flexible open boards, allowing players to grow at their own pace while developing confidence, focus, and sportsmanship.

This is where habits are built—steady practice, smart decision-making, and a love for the game that lasts.
