The Wyomissing Area High School Chess Team competes in the Berks County Chess League, the Pennsylvania State Scholastic Chess Championship as well as other local tournaments throughout the year. We meet each week to play and review games as well.


Check out this 60 Minutes interview with the world's best chess player, 21 year-old, Norwegian Magnus Carlsen.

High School chess club members & anyone from the community of all ages are invited to play at the Wyomissing Public Library from 10 am - 12 noon on Saturdays Mar 17, Apr 14, Apr 28, May 19, Jun 2, Jun 9, Jul 7, Jul 14, Aug 4, Aug 11, & Aug 25. Please come out and support this new club. No registration is required. Bring your own chess set & clock if possible.

PARENTS: Don't add yet another video game to the collection. A $20 tournament chess setand a $26 chess clock are gifts that will last a lifetime. Players with their own tournament-approved chess sets take more pride in their chess game and will not have to borrow beat-up school sets. Great prices can be found at the links above at wholesalechess.com.


Again, we won the Berks County League with an undefeated year for the second consecutive year! This is our 14th county championship, the most of any team in the County for the past 40 years. See the Berks County League website for details.
