What weāre about
š Welcome to Silicon Valley Chess Community (SVCC)! āļø
Weāre the largest, most social, and most exciting chess community in NorCal ā built for players of all levels who want more than just a game.
Our mission: To bring people together through the game of chess ā whether youāre a beginner, a blitz hustler, or a seasoned pro. Weāre here to make chess modern, fun, and full of good vibes.
Our purpose: In a world full of screens and solo play, we believe in creating real, face-to-face connections. SVCC is where strategy meets friendship, and where a simple chessboard turns into a social playground.
Our values:
ā
Community First ā Everyoneās welcome.
ā
Fun Over Formal ā We play hard, but chill harder.
ā
Growth Together ā Learn, improve, and support each other.
ā
Vibes Matter ā Good energy is part of every event.
š» We host Chess Club Nights at the best bars across the Bay Area ā from social blitz games and casual play to tournaments and simuls with masters. Itās more than chess ā itās the best night of your week.
š¬ Meet new people, get better at chess, and break out of your routine in the coolest way possible.
