Who are North Canterbury Chess?

North Canterbury Chess is a chess club which operates out of Rangiora, New Zealand. We are run by an elected executive comprising President, Vice-President and Secretary/Treasurer with up to two additional untitled councilors.

Our club is a non-profit organization. This status is detailed in our constitution and is recognised by New Zealand's sole taxation agency : Inland Revenue Department.

We formed 12 September 2001, and since 2002 have been affiliated with the New Zealand Chess Federation (NZCF, the governing body for chess in this country).

How we operate

We operate a democratic policy toward decision making.
