Do you love chess? Are you excited to play chess with friends, and practice so you can get better? Then come on down to Knights of the Round Table Chess Club! It’s the perfect place to meet others who love the game of chess, and increase your abilities of strategic thinking. Playing Chess promotes brain growth by exercising both sides of your brain!
