The PFS Chess Club

This is the journey of the Penang Free School Chess Club. The club has been in existence, although not continuously, since 1931 but the game could have been played much earlier through the efforts of the School Captain of that era, Yeoh Bok Choon. Unfortunately, there are no records to substantiate my claim on its beginnings. After the Japanese Occupation, the PFS Chess Club in its present form was revived in 1954. Anyhow, this is the club's journey through time. Enjoy!
