Interclub competition
Play with your club online
Enter your chess club with a team and play against clubs from all over the Netherlands, Flanders and beyond. At correspondence pace, rated, and completely free.
Your club against another club
Two teams, four boards, and a whole match that plays out online. Together you play for your club's name.
Play across borders and regions
The best part of online interclub: you take on clubs from completely different regions, from Groningen to West Flanders and further, that you would never meet over the board.
How it works
Four boards
Each team plays four players per match, so even a small club can take part.
Correspondence
Days per move instead of a fixed evening. Everyone plays when it suits them.
Rated
Every game counts towards your rating, so each member builds up an online strength.
Free
Taking part costs nothing, and you can sign up throughout the season.
At your own pace
Correspondence chess means days per move. You play whenever it suits you, in the evening on the couch or in between, with no fixed club night.
Why take part
No scheduling
Correspondence removes the biggest hurdle: you don't need four people online at the same time.
Club pride
Your team plays under your club's name. You play for your club, not as an anonymous player.
Across borders
Play clubs from entirely different regions and countries you would never meet over the board.
Even in summer
Perfect for the months when the league is on a break but your members still want to play.
For clubs and casual teams alike
Have a club?
Register a club team and invite your members with a single shareable link. Whoever opens it becomes a member and a team member at once.
No club?
Form your own team with friends or other members and just join in. Four players and you're on the boards.
One big chess community
From club teams to self formed teams: everyone plays in the same competition, and a lively community of players and clubs grows from it.
