@WadimRosenstein I had my best chess experience ever as a volunteer at the 2025 World Rapid and Bitz Team Championships in London. I was on meet and greet duties and expected to meet the sponsor! I was fortunate to receive a FIDE recognition award for my contribution @ecfchess @schoolschess

Lots of great games indeed - and a very insightful foreword from one of the six players featured, @gmmds! The book is available from @NewInChess and also, of course, @ChessAndBridge! Looking forward to talking about it later in the year at Kenilworth, @Carl_Portman! #chess

new: Unlock Your Chess Creativity The English chess explosion of the 1970s lit the fuse for a golden era in the 1980s, when a wave of brilliant British players rose to the very top.

I visited Chess & Bridge shop on Baker Street for the last time yesterday. It is sad that they are moving, but new doors will open and the chess world will support them at their new premises I am sure. Good luck and thanks for the memories. ❤️

Oops. World book day? I never got the memo and I have been calling for WORLD ROOK DAY where millions of chess players globally have one day to checkmate with a rook. Maybe it will catch on...
