Schachclub Engadin

Schachclub Engadin is an Engadin-based chess club and active tournament organizer in Switzerland. It is closely associated with St. Moritz and serves players across the Engadin region through regular club activity and public events. Moreover, it supports both recreational and competitive chess in a distinctive alpine setting.

The club runs weekly chess evenings, promotes junior chess, and organizes recurring open chess tournament events. Its public tournament calendar includes the Engadiner Pfingstopen and the Zuoz Open, which give the club a clear role in regional and international over-the-board competition. In addition, it participates in Swiss team chess and maintains an active presence within the national chess structure.

Beyond tournament play, the club helps strengthen the local chess community through accessible club evenings and youth-focused activity. Therefore, it contributes not only to organized classical chess events but also to long-term chess development in the Engadin. At the same time, its tournament work has made it a recognizable chess organizer in Swiss regional chess.
