St. Cuan’s College Chess Club
The St. Cuan’s College Chess Club meets every Wednesday at small break. Our members enjoy learning new strategies, challenging each other, and taking part in both friendly and competitive matches. Each year, we proudly represent the school in the Connacht Cup at the Ardilaun Hotel, fielding a number of six-player teams. We also play friendly matches with schools such as St. Jarlath’s College and St. Killian’s College.
One of the highlights of our year is the in-house chess tournament, open to all students — and teachers! — making it a fun and fiercely contested event across the school community.
