Here's a first version of a clickable map showing all the teams in Division A (red) and Division B (green) around the world:

https://www.mapcustomizer.com/map/ExeterPrez-ClubsLeagueMap-Version1

All the locations have been based on the city / town descriptions on the public group pages, and/or a quick Google - please let me know if the dot for your club isn't quite correct, and we can adjust for version 2!

Interesting,

Could the links to each pin direct the person to the website/ fb page of the club?

Hi elchamieh,

I don't think it's possible to add direct links like that on that site - it's not set up for doing that - but you could certainly have the relevant URL displayed so the user can reach you fairly quickly by selecting and right-clicking "open link" (or something similar, depending on your browser). I've added the URL for Shamieh Chess Academy's Facebook page to your "dot" as an illustration of how this could work...

Great work, Tim. Very impressive to think of it and then put the work in adding the clubs. Cheers.

Excellent Tim, very well done 👍! 

Maybe chess.com can now finalize this, by adding the clubs website addresses and contacts (all provided with our applications).

If someone disagrees in sharing this, he/she could express it here (not the other way round please).

I'm happy to receive and incorporate any data that chess.com wish to share - it's pretty much instant for me to include if the club name appears as a "column" in the data.

Alternatively, I'd be happy to add in the specific data your club wants. To make this simple, send me a chess.com message with your club's info on one line in the form clubname~contact~website

For example, for Exeter Chess Club, the line of information would be:

Exeter Chess Club~@ExeterPrez~www.exeterchessclub.org.uk

Please enter your club name exactly as it appears in the list alongside the map, and make sure you use the two ~ symbols to break up the information, as per the example above. I can maintain a post in this thread indicating which ones have been added so far.

If people have further suggestions on information to include, please let me know and we can add that iteratively. As noted earlier, everything will appear as plain text rather than links (but I can ask the site developer if it might be feasible to add that facility in future...)

(P.S. Worth adding that I already have access to the list of admins shown at https://www.chess.com/news/view/participating-teams-1 that I could auto-insert as the contact - but I suspect different people might have different views on how the "contact" field should be used! Thoughts welcome...)

Thanks - will update soon, along with the others I've been sent. Happy to receive as a private message rather than having them all in this thread.
