1st Girls’ Online Chess Tournament

At Chess Rising Stars, we are pleased to announce our 1st Girls’ Online Chess Tournament. Our goal is to organise fun competitions to support and encourage girls to play more chess.

“Chess has played an important role in my life and I am keen to share that. I moved to Greece when I was young but I didn’t speak any Greek. Joining the local chess club changed my life because chess has its own language. It helped me to make friends and become more confident.”

WFM Maria Manelidou, Founder
