Marshall Chess Club

The Marshall Chess Club, located in Greenwich Village in New York City, is one of the oldest and most historically significant chess clubs in the United States. Founded in 1915 and named after American chess champion Frank Marshall, it has hosted some of the most important games in chess history and continues to operate as an active playing venue and cultural institution. The Marshall runs a full calendar of USCF- and FIDE-rated events, including weekly Swiss tournaments, action chess, and special invitationals. It is one of the few clubs in the country that regularly hosts norm-eligible events for players pursuing FIDE titles. Membership is available to those wishing to play regularly at the club.
