We usually have about thirty members and we currently run three teams in the Shropshire Chess League, with opportunities to play friendly social chess, to compete in various club and county competitions, or just to watch and enjoy some interesting games.
The league season runs from October to May. In the summer months it pays to check that someone is going to turn up on the club night - occasionally holidays and sunshine attractions leave us with an empty clubhouse.

All members are required to join the Telepost Club, currently £15-00 pa payable 1st April. In addition we ask chess team members to contribute currently £10-00 pa towards league fees etc. Under 16's enjoy free club membership provided that a parent or guardian is a fully paid up member. As a member of the Telepost Club, you will also have access to other activities and facilities within a friendly, well run organisation. These include crown green bowls (two greens), ladies darts, radio hams, pigeon racing, pool, dominoes, and Saturday night entertainment. In addition the club also has premises in Town Walls, Shrewsbury where you will find snooker tables, table tennis, badminton, bar and TV lounge.
We look forward to welcoming you to our club.

How To Find Us:-
At Abbey Foregate in Shrewsbury - opposite the Abbey - you will see the Shalimar Indian Restaurant. Alongside that is Railway Lane - just wide enough for a car. Follow that and you will soon see the Telepost Clubhouse with its bowling greens.
