The Goðinn chess club is active in Húsavík and Thingeyjarsveit. But some club members live in Reykjavík because anyone can join the club. We have weekly chess practices, usually on Monday nights, from September until early May every year.
Two times a year we go to Reykjavíkto participate in the Icelandic chess team championship. Our internal championship tournament is usally in Jan-Feb every year. We also do blitz and rapid tournaments during the season as well. And all of them are FIDE-rated.
Most of our tournaments and practices takes place in Framsýn Union at Garðarsbraut 26 Húsavík or in Hlöðufell Húsavík. But some take place in Álfasteinn Laugar or Vaglir Fnjóskadal. W
