Winners of the girl’s tournaments of the Rudaga Kaissa Chess Festival 2024 received on-line training sessions provided by our FIDE Commission for Women’s Chess!
Knowing how important role-models are for kids and their development as well as motivation, our Commission was thrilled to reward the best girls of the Festival with the classes with one of the best female players in the world – Anna Muzychuk, 5-time World Champion (3 times in rapid and 2 times in blitz chess).
Tifanija Bella Jakobsone (winner of the tournament A among girls, only 10 year old!) and Justine Elza Gravere who won their sections as well as this special opportunity to train with one of the best female players in the world!
The sessions took place on the 25th of September and provided girls with an invaluable time with the champion of the game.
The best proof of that is this lovely message Justine sent us after the training:
“Thank you and Mrs. Anna Muzychuk for this online season! 💛 I am really glad to have this opportunity. It was useful, I hope that I will play a little bit better after this lesson. I’m a little upset that I spent so much time to figure out the best moves in these positions, but I learned new things. Thank you so much!”
We would like to take this opportunity and thank Anna Muzychuk for agreeing to conduct the lessons with the girls. Sharing her experience and kindness with the girls will surely be an important memory for them!
