The Ayer Online Chess Club has proven it is now the most active chess club in all of New England - attested by the fact that it has been holding multiple online events for the past six months in the midst of this Covid-19 pandemic. The AOCC provides great opportunity for players to engage in their favorite game online with other chess fanatics, while these players are still unable to play over-the-board and in person at their local chess clubs or weekend tournaments.The AOCC  will continue to satisfy the needs of those players who like online chess and will stay the course in providing them with chess events multiple times per week. And for that, facilitators Steve Murray and Mike Commisso should be highly commended.

The Ayer Online chess club has been a great online experience for me. For me to be able to play many USCF rated tournaments with different time controls has been terrific. I am technically an "alien" to this club. I had found the club on chess.com, but I had never been to the in person club. I was eventually allowed in which was amazing for playing 3 cash prize tournaments. This club, has giving many different tournaments, with USCF tournaments every day. I would like to thank Steve Murray for organizing these events, and being so nice even though I was not from New England. Overall this has been a great experience for me, and has been very fun.
