Dear Friends,
In less than two weeks we will be in Spain, for the 2026 in-person camp. It looks like 27 is the final participants number, but if anyone else would like to join last-minute, all you have to do is fill in the registration form.
The complete schedule of the camp is available on our website along with the current list of participants.
The camp will take place at the 4* resort Zoraida Garden in Roquetas de Mar, Spain, from May 17th to May 24th. Your trainers will be GM Jacob Aagaard, GM Renier Castellanos and GM Julen Arizmendi. We are also honored to welcome GM and former Women’s World Champion Alexandra Kosteniuk as our special guest. She will give a masterclass, a simul and play friendly blitz games with participants between the 18th and 20th of May.
For those traveling via Málaga Airport, we have arranged two shuttle transfers to the hotel on May 17th, departing at 15:00 and 21:30. The return shuttle to the airport will depart from the hotel on May 24th at 07:00. (Final timings may be subject to minor adjustments, which will be communicated in advance.)
On the 23rd of May there will be a FIDE rated rapid or blitz tournament with prizes.
More information about the camp is available on our website.
Yahli and a few other members are playing Sardinia World Chess Festival. Live games are here.
Stanislaw and Lee played a rapid tournament last week and sent us this lovely photo.
Starting the 16th of May, Stanislaw will be competing in the Diving Chess World Championship. While he won’t be able to attend this year’s camp, we’re confident that the dedication and training he put in last year—both in chess and diving—will shine through.
Have you been playing any tournaments? We want to know! Let us know on the forum or on social media.
Your friends from Killer Chess Training
