Library Chess Club With ChessKid
Hey ChessKids and fellow educators! We're excited to announce that we will be helping school libraries and media centers start a chess club with ChessKid's starter kit!
ChessKid's Library Chess Club Initiative aims to introduce the game and benefits of chess to students by gifting FREE starter kits in support of school libraries starting a chess program.
In addition to a free starter kit, ChessKid will also be giving FREE gold memberships to approved school media centers! Students will have unlimited access to ChessKid.com lessons, games, puzzles, and more!
ChessKid is proud to help support the start-up of chess clubs in libraries. Starting a scholastic chess club has many advantages for kids, schools, and the larger chess community. Kids learn from each other, and having others at the same skill level can build enthusiasm for playing. - Carey Fan, CEO of ChessKid
