Steve is also our 1st team captain in the Cannock, North Staffs and Wolverhampton leagues.

As well as being one of our most active players in competitive chess, Steve is a keen organiser of fun events in the club, and a willing coach for new members.

David has been an active league player since joining our club, quickly establishing himself in all our league and cup teams.

David can pull a win out of the hat with his favoured opening (his own secret weapon), but is probably better known for being able to grind out a draw.

Ken is also our Webmaster and 2nd team captain in the Wolverhampton and Cannock Leagues.  He is also our Tournament Secretary, organising many internal club competitions.

Ken has dabbled with many openings and defensive systems over the years, but is more at home in an endgame.

Damon is one of our newer, but most regular faces at the club.

He qualified as a chess arbiter in 2025 and is a keen participant in club tournaments.  

Damon is eager to learn new openings, and gain experience in local tournaments.

Jack has been one of the most regular faces at our club nights in the last couple of years. 

He quickly volunteered to serve on our committee, and has a keen interest in promoting our club through various social platforms.
