This site is created to add Chess training stuff that can't be added in our page Chess Teachers and Learners because Facebook lacks some certain features to add chess training material like board with moving pieces. We are planning to use this site to add chess Material , Articles , News , Live commentary to matches and a lot of surprises. If anyone had a training topic and want this topic to be discussed here tell us and we will do what we can to help. If anyone likes to help and share some of his chess knowledge on this page contact us and we will arrange that too.
