Over the board

Open chess games near you

A board is set up and someone wants a game. See where, and go play. Every pin is a public place.

How it works

Game on now. A pulsing pin means a board is up right now. Get directions and go play. No need to arrange anything.
Open game later. A gold pin is a board that will be up at a set time. Turn up while it is on.
Got a board set up? Put your game on the map so players nearby can find it. The pin comes down by itself.
Clubs. Club organizers can put their club on the map with its next meeting.
Play it safe. Games are in busy public places only. Report any pin that looks wrong. Putting a game on the map is for players 18 and older who accept the open games agreement.
