Chess Club SW Harburg

The friendly chess club near me

"Schwarz Weiß Harburg" is a chess club in the heart of Hamburg Harburg with 35 adult members and a youth group with about 10 members. Chess players of all ages, nationalities, sexes and playing strength are welcome. In 2023 we participate in the Hamburg Team Championship with three teams. The four club championships are open for club members, and partly to guests.

Play time: Thursdays

Every thursday we meet from 7pm in our club home in Harburg-Heimfeld to play chess, analyse games and chat. If you are interested just come by and meet us, you are very welcome! Club tournaments and Hamburg Team Championship home games also take place on thursdays. The calender keeps you up to date.

Youth training

We offer training for children (from 6 years on) and teenagers every thursday from 6pm to 7pm at our playing site. If you are interested just join us on thursdays or mail us your questions.

Low membership fees

We have some of the lowest membership fees among Hamburg chess clubs. Standard fee is 8€/month, while unemployed and disabled pay 5,50€/month. Children and students pay 4€/month. This makes us the club with the lowest membership fees south of the Elbe.

Where we play

We meet at the AWO-Seniorentreff Hamburg-Heimfeld (how to get there), right in the vicinity of the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH). The rooms are perfectly suited for a chess club of our size with a big playing hall, barrier free access, two terraces and a fully equipped kitchen!
