🎉Happy International Women's Day!
🤩 Women remain an underrepresented demographic in the chess world--but at the CCC, we encourage girls and women to engage with chess both on and off the board!
🥰 Thank you to all the women and girls who make the CCC amazing!
On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate the incredible contributions of our women who help shape Russian Chess School every day. In a male-dominated industry, we’ve built a top-notch product together, and this is just the beginning!
Yesterday was the CCC's 12th birthday!
From 3 employees to 60+, and from a handful of school programs and events to today's daily activities, we remain driven in growing chess for everyone.
Thank you to every player, coach, parent, and friend who's been part of our community!
