What does this mean?
Well, besides the fact that Chess.com clearly has impeccable taste, it means I get to draft and train a team of four students for an entire month — turning them into tactical monsters ready to crush the competition. Now, why am I excited?
You all know how obsessed I am with chess improvement — after all, we’re already grinding away in our chess marathons (and yes, our second one, Anti-Blunder, is in full swing). So this? This is just another excuse for me to push ambitious chess improvers to their limits.
Want to be on MY TEAM?
Here’s what you need to do:
2️⃣ Sign up for the 2025 Chess Improvement Challenge
3️⃣ Prove that you actually want to improve
I’ll be picking FOUR students from different rating brackets in the draft on September 9th at 11 a.m. ET / 17:00 CEST / 9:30 p.m. IST.
So, if you think you have what it takes to survive a month of Dina-style training (chess boot camp, but make it fun), drop an “I’m in” in the comments.
Let’s do this. 💪♟️
