Teaching chess to children

Anyone wishing to coach a group of children might be interested in attending one of the courses run by the charity "Chess in Schools and Communities (CSC)". An online option is available.

Alternatively, Robin Kneebone is authorised by CSC to guide people through the ideas and material that CSC provides.
