Coachella Chess Club Welcomes You
Welcome to our site! We are always planning something new and exciting, and hope you’ll join us!
*NOTE* Some features on the CCC website are best viewed on a Desktop or Laptop computer - especially the Game Breakdown column as Diagrams are a bit "skewed" on the mobile version.
