April 2026 Update – Become Internet Famous at the Main Line Chess Club

  • Tuesday 4/28 – We are in week 3 of our current 5 week tournament. It’s never too late to join a tournament! The schedule is designed so you don’t have to play every round.  Remaining Dates: 4/28, 5/5, 5/12.

A major benefit of the Main Line Chess Club is the opportunity to receive guidance and game review from highly experienced players and instructors.   USCF Expert Ed Roche, our Activities Director (who also generously contributes about $1,000 in prizes to our annual club championship!), and our resident National Master Dan Heisman, give advice and will go over members’ games, which is like getting a free chess lesson!

Dan frequently uses games played at the Main Line Chess Club as instructional examples on his YouTube channel, Chess Thinking! with NM Dan Heisman, as well as on his website. For many members, that means a Tuesday night club game can turn into an online teaching example watched by chess players around the world.

A recent MLCC game featured on Dan’s website:  Safety Table Exercise

Chess players of all levels are welcome!

Please come to the club before 7:20 PM to play.  If you expect to arrive later than 7:20 pm, call 215-219-7599 to let the TD know that you would like a game starting late.

We meet at St George’s Episcopal Church located at 1 W Ardmore Avenue in Ardmore PA. It is at the intersection of Ardmore Ave. and Darby Road. (get directions)   FREE PARKING
