article recreated
editHello .. Apparently this page was created/deleted back in 2009. Not sure what happened back then, but hopefully this version will clean up any mess that was made. The page currently said it needs a more neutral point of view .. let me know what is considered non-neutral, and I'll clean it up. Thanks. Bjerauld (talk) 23:40, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
The article to me seems neutral enough. It may require more depth. I was trying to add the official Channel with lectures from the club, and the official site, but it states it has too many external links, but I don´t see any. It should add the fact that it has held US Chess Championship for five years (since 2009), and that it has held Sinquefield Cup (which was the highest rated tournament played in US history, with players Magnus Carlsen, Levon Aronian, Hikaru Nakamura and Gata Kamsky).Pazguillermo (talk) 23:41, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
Name change
editWhen exactly did SLCC change names? I used to watch their YouTube channel and always knew them as the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis. Alphapeta (talk) 09:31, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
YouTube-Channel
editMaybe their YouTube-channel with more than 300.000 subscribers should be mentioned in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.131.119.0 (talk) 20:40, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
are we going to mention 9LX?

- What is Chess 960? Chess 960, also known as Fischer Random, is a variant of chess created by Bobby Fischer in the late 1990s in which the pieces on the home rank are randomized, with 960 representing the number of possible starting positions.
- What is Chess 9LX? Chess 9LX is a trademark of the Saint Louis Chess Club, and the name of one of its annual tournaments. All competitions in the Chess 9LX tournament are played in the Chess 960 or Fischer Random style. Players will not know the order of the home rank pieces until they arrive before the start of the round and will have to rely on their creativity in rapid and blitz games.
