STORY
On February 16, 2010, PFCC was established with the initiatives of our Founding Chairman Ringo Villagonzalo, Efren Quilantang, and Romie Madlangsakay in Ronda, Cebu.
In its early years, PFCC was founded on a mission to educate the youth, instill values and sportsmanship, and strengthen the spirit of brotherhood. The forefathers envisioned us to be one of the most respected chess clubs globally and be a training ground for future world chess champions in Asia.
Pre-COVID-19 PFCC held bonding tournaments in Negros Oriental, Metro Manila, and Laguna. We produced competitive players in the field, including the young ASEAN Chess Master Sara Francine Olendo.
Today, through the power of camaraderie, we are building a new age for PFCC. We are building a system to achieve our vision of housing the finest chess players in the country. Currently, PFCC is affiliated with the National Chess Federation, popular Filipino chess streamers, private corporations, and individuals.
