What we’re about
Real chess. Real people. Real life.
Tired of playing online with strangers you’ll never meet?
Come play chess in the real world — with real people, good vibes, and maybe a drink in your hand.
⸻
This group is for locals, expats, tourists — anyone in Ljubljana who wants to:
• Play chess casually (no pressure, no judgment)
• Meet new people
• Hang out in bars, parks, or cafés
• Enjoy a drink, talk trash, laugh, and maybe even learn something
No rating? No problem.
Hungover? Even better.
⸻
We don’t have a fixed schedule — meetups happen when someone says:
“Hey, anyone up for chess tonight?”
That’s the spirit of this group: spontaneous, relaxed, and fun.
⸻
🧠 Got a board? Bring it.
We’ve only got a few for now — and they have already been through a few questionable endgames.
More boards = more games = more fun.
If you don’t have one, come anyway. We’ll rotate, share, improvise.
⸻
⏱ Like clocks? Use one.
They’re optional. Most of us have a phone. Free chess clock apps exist.
If you want blitz, go for it. If you want slow, soulful strategy — go for that too.
⸻
🤝 All levels welcome:
• Total beginners
• Rusty childhood prodigies
• Pub chess pirates
• Blitz junkies
• People who only know how to move the horsey — you’re in.
⸻
This isn’t a tournament. It’s a chess party.
Bring a board, bring a friend, bring yourself.
We’re here for the moves, the jokes, the drinks — and the people.
See you over the board. Or across from it. ♟️🍻

Pravi šah. Pravi ljudje. V živo.
Si navečilan šaha prek interneta z neznanci, ki jih nikoli ne boš srečal?
Pridi igrat šah v resničnem svetu — z resničnimi ljudmi, dobro družbo in mogoče kakšnim pivom v roki.
⸻
Ta skupina je za domačine, tujce, popotnike — kogarkoli, ki je v Ljubljani in želi:
• Igrati šah brez pritiska
• Spoznat nove ljudi
• Viset v barih, parkih, kavarnah
• Malo šahirat, malo debatirat, malo spit
Nimaš ratinga? Ni panike.
Si zmatran od včeraj? Še boljše.
⸻
Nimamo fiksnega urnika — dobimo se, ko nekdo reče:
“Ej, kdo je za kak šah danes?”
To je to. Skupina je sproščena, spontana in zabavna.
⸻
🧠 Imaš šah? Prinesi ga!
Nismo profesionalni šahovski klub, imamo samo nekaj šahovnic.
Več kompletov = več partij = več zabave.
Če nimaš svojega, vseeno pridi. Se bomo izmenjevali, improvizirali.
⸻
⏱ Rabiš uro? Uporabi jo.
Ni obvezna. Vsi imamo telefon.
Obstajajo brezplačne aplikacije za šah ure.
Če ti je do blitza — super. Če ti paše počasi in strateško — tudi super.
⸻
🤝 Dobrodošli vsi nivoji:
• Popolni začetniki
• Tisti, ki so zadnjič igrali v osnovni šoli
• Kavarniški taktikarji
• Blitz odvisniki
• In ja — tudi če znaš premikat samo “konjička” — si vabljen.
⸻
To ni turnir. To je šah žurka.
Prinesi komplet, pripelji prijatelja, pripelji zraven tudi svojo boljšo polovico.
Igramo zaradi partij, for, pijače — in ljudi.
Se vidimo za mizo. Al pa čez njo. ♟️🍻
