Chess at school in Guyana

We are pleased to see that children from school of 3 Palétuviers in Guyana are concentrated on the chess puzzles that you can find in our little Holliday book for chess players.

ChessSolidarity delivered 10 samples of our newly edited book and the President of French Chess Federation, Bachar Kouatly, as well as Olivier Renet -GM-  kindly put an autograph on a sample offered to Daniel Baur (school director).

Have good hollidays boys !

GM trip with ChessSolidarity

GM means Grand Master.

With ChessSolidarity GM stands for Guyana-Mongolia.

The little chess club Les cavaliers des 3 Palétuviers (Knights from the mangrove), based in french Guyana, has adopted a motto from Mark Twain : They didn't know it was impossible, so they did it.

That's why three kids from the Club went all the way down to Australia last year.

In February 2015, Yoan, Wilfried and Norlène will visit Mongolia and the french school based in Oulan Bator.

ChessSolidarity his pleased to support the initiative with a VIP chess day in Paris, a little help for the trip, and chess gifts for the Oulan Bator chess players.
