La Didáctica

La Didáctica is a historic chess organizer based in Madrid, Spain. Located in the Malasaña area, it has supported board games and recreational culture since 1927. Moreover, it plays an active role as a long-standing chess club with regular competitive activity in the city.

The organization runs frequent rapid chess, classical chess, and club-level events, while also hosting open competitions for a broad player base. It organizes the linked open chess tournament, Torneo Elizbar Ubilava, at its Madrid venue. In addition, its official calendar shows a steady program of Friday, Saturday, and seasonal chess events.

Beyond that, La Didáctica combines tradition, accessibility, and community-based tournament organizer work. It supports league teams, club gatherings, and regular over-the-board play in a recognized local setting. As a result, it remains a visible part of Madrid’s grassroots chess competition scene.
