Hey ChessKids, 

We're announcing the first-ever global ChessKid tournament that's recognized by the International Chess Federation! The first-ever Intercontinental ChessKid FIDE Challenge will take place January 23, 2021, and is open to any child aged 12 and below. 

This will be the largest ChessKid event in history and the first time that FIDE, the World Chess Federation, has partnered with ChessKid. We're expecting more than 1000 kids from dozens of countries to compete.

To register, click here for the earlier "Eastern Edition" (beginning at 9AM UK) or click here for the later "Western Edition" (beginning at 9AM Pacific U.S.).

By the way--there are prizes, including mini-camps with past world champions like Anand and Kosteniuk, as well as current women's rapid world champion GM Humpy Koneru. Click here to read more about the prizes.

More Updates! SuperKing Level #1

Our first SuperKing level is out: Defending the King! We released it on Thanksgiving as a gift to our most dedicated ChessKids. In this first of the very advanced levels, FunMasterMike switches gears and shows you how to defend against fearsome attacks, including some from Vishy Anand!
