Hey!

My name is Jonathan Rasberry and I LOVE chess! I have been playing now for about 10 years, and my rating has peaked over 2120. I am also three times a state level champion in Alabama including winning the 2015 Alabama Scholastic Championships in my senior year.  

I am also a chess coach, chess writer, and chess camp director while also serving as the current Alabama Chess Federation President! As a coach for over 5 years, I teach private lessons on Zoom, I have coached many teams and individuals at state and national championships. 5 private students went on to win at the Alabama Scholastic Championships while teams I have worked with have placed in the top 10 nationally. 

I've also had the pleasure to coach at and this year direct the Madison City Chess League Summer camps. I have also directed a few RasberryChess camps! Also, in July I plan to release my first chess book which will cover chess principles. I will link the book to this page when it is published!  

As the president of the Alabama Chess Federation, I've had the privilege to get to know many players, coaches, and chess leaders in Alabama. The Alabama Chess Federation's goal is to connect chess players to chess events across our state. If you are an Alabama player and have questions about Alabama chess, shoot me an email at the below account!

Are you looking to bring your chess to the next level? Message me or send me an email at rasberrychess@yahoo.com for a free, trial lesson! I look forward to helping you reach your full potential!

Sincerely,

Jonathan Rasberry
