Both players and families or friends can follow the game through the YouTube channel ‘TuProfeDeAjedrez’.
Enrol in this tournament is completely free and the idea came from the director of the chess tutorial team, Cristian Carlos in Malaga, who wanted to promote this sport, game, science and art in both an educational and fun way.
The objective of this competition is to encourage families and friends to practice and enjoy themselves from the comfort of their own home.
