Established in the early 1940's, the Westfield Chess Club is New Jersey's most prestigious chess club, with several Grandmasters & NJ State Champions among its alumni.
We have resumed running Sunday in-person tournaments at the YMCA building, 220 Clark Street, Westfield, NJ 07090. Please note the new 11:45 a.m. start time & arrive early (by 11:15) to allow the Y to do their check-in. Doors open at 11:00.
All attendees must sign the Westfield Area Y's COVID-19 Waiver!
Please do this online to avoid long lines & get the tournament started on time.
If you are under age 18 a parent will have to sign for you.
Everyone must also agree to the Y's Code Of Conduct.
The Westfield CC requires that you wear a mask (Bring your own. They are not supplied.) & reserves the right to eject or refuse those who do not comply with our COVID-19 protocols.
The right to require proof of vaccination is also reserved.
However, since "we" are essentially a 1-man show, this is not expected to be a requirement any time soon.
Eating is not allowed in the tournament room.
Ask the YMCA if you can eat in the lounge.
** Effective immediately... the Westfield CC reserves the right to:
1. Charge cancellation/re-stocking fees or suspend/ban players for late or silent withdrawals.
2. Suspend/ban or charge compensatory/reinstatement fees to those playing with an expired USCF membership. **
