Hey there!

With the stoppage of sports almost for six months now, chess and the Federation has had a great success in continuing its projects and activities for everyone thru online chess tournaments, webinars and activities.
A couple of weeks ago, Coaches and Grandmasters' Eugene Torre and Jayson Gonzales spearheaded the National Certification and Training for Chess Coaches. Several titles were awarded in the said thee-day online workshop:
- National Trainer
- Regional Trainer
- City Trainer

Veteran coaches as well as the younger ones, teachers and players, had to go thru written test and an actual teaching and coaching presentation. Talk about professionalizing the Chess Coaching profession in the Philippines.
Now, its not only the Federation who has been doing their jobs. Several individuals and groups have managed o support chess tournaments and webinars in the last six months---at a dizzying pace and numbers.
