IGD Overview


Its all over for another year! Thanks for everyone who came along to play this weekend.

Poole Chess Club had 15 children attend their weekly junior chess tuition. They run sessions every Saturday from 10-11 for beginners and 11-12 for improvers. These are open to children aged 7-11 costing £3 per week.

Worlds Away and the Wii games session had an attendance of 16. Board games played included X-Wing, Dungeons and Dragons Attack Wing, King of Tokyo and on the Wii Super Smash Bros (plus some other games I didn’t recognize). Six of those at the gaming club took also part in the Global Gossip Game, a full debrief of this by the organizers should be available later in the week.

Our Stay and Play for children and parents was very successful with 16 children and 7 parents attending over the hour and half session using games from the various Bournemouth Toy Libraries. We were asked whether this could be a regular event and will be looking into this.

Sadly we were a bit short staffed on the day and I didn't get chance to take any photos of the event.


Those of you who are regulars to the club will have noticed attendance dropping off recently from averaging just over 20 in the Spring to half that in recent weeks. Next weekend we are going to have a meeting with our volunteers to look at ways of getting some new members and increasing the numbers coming on Saturdays.
