Checkers Sets

A primitive form of checkers, also known as draughts, existed more than 40 centuries ago. In the 14th century the chess board was utilised and this gave rise to the term checkers, being played on a checkered board.

Google the word 'draughts' or 'checkers' and you will find lots of information on the rules and the history of this fascinating game.

The giant checkers (draughts) set is $350
and is made from very durable PVC.

The mat (for chess or checkers) is of light weight nylon material and neatly folds into a handy bag (as pictured).
This is $95 (including GST).

The 'small giant' or 'terrace' checkers set, pictured alongside the giant one, is $95 including GST.

The lightweight nylon mat ($55 inc GST) folds into the small bag for storage.

The set pictured on the right is the perfect tournament set for children (and adults) on the move. The set is the standard Staunton design, identical to those used in all school tournaments in Queensland and northern NSW, and comes complete with a light-weight roll-up board. The whole set fits snugly into a strongly-made cylinder.

Very well priced at $32, including GST.

If you have a child taking part in one of our school chess programmes, this set is $28, and this includes postage.

On the left is a Mini-Garden set, in a neat carrying box.
The set comprises Staunton-style pieces, with the kings 20cm tall
(those in the Terrace set are 30cm tall), a roll-up mat which is 91cm square. The small pieces on the board are the standard tournament set to illustrate the difference in size.

This set retails at $65, including GST.
