Who can take part?
Chess is thriving at Millfield. It is available to all as we run separate classes to cater for beginners and recreational players all the way up to those of international standard. Under the expert tutelage of our Head Coach, International Grandmaster Mathew Turner, pupils are able to develop their game through personalised study programmes and one-to-one master classes. Moreover, pupils are given the opportunity to compete in numerous tournaments (see below), which aim to challenge and give valuable experience to all our players.
The School also offers a Chess Scholarship, endorsed and officially launched by Grandmaster and three times British Champion Nigel Short.
What’s involved?
Millfield is the premier Chess venue in the West of England, and as such Millfield pupils are able to play a whole host of tournaments and competitions, both international and national.
