Hello Chess lovers!

It’s important for us to remember that this first season will end on the 29th of November, after 22 rounds. There will also be a fun tournament in December, and the new season will begin in January. There will also be more chess onboarding during that period. If you have any suggestions on how our hive chess tournaments can improve or how the community can be better, feel free to contact me.
As usual, We have the Friday event. Tomorrow’s edition is a Swiss event.

The chess world mourns the passing of the young chess player Daniel Naroditsky. He was one of my favorite chess players and streamers. He shared so many good lessons and instructive teachings. In his beloved memory, the tournament on Saturday will be a special one to honor him. We will be playing a thematic opening event! The King’s Indian which was one of his favorites, and he has several teachings on it. You can take your time to watch the videos or study and get prepared ahead of the event on Saturday.
