This is the first in a series of articles which focus on the U3A Jávea’s Activity Groups. We now have over 45 active Groups: why not join up and learn a new skill or resurrect an old one?
Can you see the winning move? This is a famous game from the 1985 World Championship between Gary Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov, two of the best chess players who have ever lived.

Do you enjoy playing Chess? Or have you ever wanted to learn?
The Chess Group meets every Monday at 14.45 (Games start at 15.00) in Cafe Nostro in Jávea Port. Check with Roy when the Group meets over the summer months.
Players of all standards are welcome. If you’re interested then please contact Roy Brown, the Group Leader on chess@u3ajavea.com.
