A&A Chess Scorebook 2-Pack — 50 Games, 100 Moves (5.5 x 8.25 in)
Product description
What's included: two identical scorebooks, each formatted to capture 50 full games. Each game space accommodates up to 100 half-moves (front and back per game sheet) and includes a bottom header area for result entry (White won, Draw, Black won) plus a line for signatures.
Materials and dimensions: The covers are made from a firm cardboard that protects pages in regular use. The interior paper is high quality and resists ink bleed-through. The soft beige page tint reduces glare for longer reading and writing sessions. Overall size for each booklet is approximately 5.5 x 8.25 inches, a convenient portable format.
Layout and usability: Pages feature clear grid lines and numbered columns to make move recording fast and legible. There is ample room beside the moves to jot brief comments, tactical reminders, or post-game thoughts. The binding is secure so pages stay in place through repeated handling.
Durability and purpose: Built for both casual practice and formal events, these booklets stand up to repeated use thanks to good paper weight and solid assembly. They’re suitable for coaches, students, and tournament competitors who need to preserve game records for later study.
Sentimental value: Beyond practical use, these booklets serve as a physical chronicle of progress—flipping back through completed games reveals patterns, improvements, and memorable moments from your chess journey.

Mariaca 5/5
Tournament-friendly size
Standard score tablet for students and enthusiasts. I wish the cover had a plastic layer or stronger board, but it serves its purpose well.

A must-have for regular players
Well-organized and simple to use. Plenty of room for long games with up to 100 moves per match. Two booklets in the pack are handy if you play often or enter events. Good paper and print clarity; easy to carry around.

CDM 5/5
Compact game-record booklet
Small, stiff-covered booklets that lie flat and provide enough space to write. Would like a top spiral for lefties, but otherwise very useful.

Michael Mooney 5/5
Clean, standard score pad
Simple, unfussy layout that includes all fields needed for a typical match. Time to switch from Old English to algebraic notation!

Javier 5/5
Basic but functional
These are move-record booklets designed for studying games later. Two booklets with 50 sheets each; each sheet fits 50 moves, so a sheet used both sides allows 100 half-moves. Ideal for competitors to record games for post-event study.

FSNS Pilot 5/5
Good quality and sensible value
Keeping a written record of moves is essential for tournament play and improving through study. These booklets are well made—the pages are bound between sturdy covers—and the two-book set gives plenty of capacity. A handy improvement would be a first-page algebraic quick-reference so players can see examples while using the booklet.
