At the risk of causing considerable offence I have decided to show London and Middlesex together. There is of course no shortage of leagues in this the most populous area of the country. I have listed the clubs in the London, Central London, Middlesex, Hammersmith, Hillingdon, Thames Valley, North Circular and Croydon leagues below. Several clubs also play in the leagues of the surrounding counties.

There are also other leagues with entry restricted to certain organisations, namely Civil Service Chess league (A), London Banks Chess League (A) and the London Commercial Chess League (A). Member clubs of these leagues are only shown on this page if they also participate in one of the leagues I have listed.

The Universities league is currently defunct.
