OUR MISSION
"The development of this program is to champion sports diversity, help promote education equality, and make a positive impact with PTSD cases of all ages."


As a former military leader and career trainer I’ve observed chess being used for many diverse scenarios and watched its magic work throughout our lifetimes. We built stronger connections, erased social boundaries, and learned how to better govern many life decisions. The time to share this in a way never attempted had finally come.

- So we're introducing the first ever, handmade, fully integrated, registered and sponsored Royal Chess Masters Club© Program Kit. -


Recent Studies-
The Effect of Chess on Standardized Test Score Gains

David I. Poston1 and Kathryn K. Vandenkieboom2

Abstract: The study compares the standardized test performance of “chess kids” versus their peers. The comparison of score gains to non-chess peers (same grade and same academic percentile) attempts to eliminate the chicken-and-egg issue that often muddles this topic, that is, does chess make kids smarter or do smart kids simply prefer chess. The data indeed confirm that chess players are generally of higher academic standing (chess kids are smart), but more importantly it statistically shows that learning chess increases a student’s academic performance (chess makes them smarter).

“Chess is proven to increase life-learning skills by helping us with focus, respectful interactions and adapting practices towards winning achievements. It is also an essential tool that promotes inclusiveness and benefits education, rehabilitation, recreation, and friendly competition.”
This chess kit not only includes everything needed to teach, learn, play and compete in the chess world; it's also designed for individuals with no prior chess playing experience. The introductory, teacher lead course included gives you all the tools needed to be competing in just the first few hours of learning. We're aiming to build a larger, more diverse chess playing community through donating free Royal Chess Masters Group Program Kits to various scholastic and other community programs. Those who desire to add an all-inclusive sport and learning program to their environments.

We strive to do this by providing Royal Chess Masters Group© Starter Program Kits through sponsorships and support from individuals like you who want to share in our values and goals of promoting the following aspects that chess can add to their environments:
• Bringing people together
• Teaching how to win and lose
• Helping us realize the consequences of our actions
• Helping with focus
• As an educational tool
• Developing creativity
• Building confidence
• Developing problem-solving skills
• Exercising the brain
• Helping to remain calm under pressure

Your support would directly enable us to provide schools and communities with our Royal Chess Masters Club© Program Kits. Along with the ultimate impact of bringing others together and building positive impacts through the joys of inclusion, gaming, and conversation.
As we grow, your contributions are helping us build this program and place them into many other needed locations. Locations which they may never experience these opportunities others have the privilege to enjoy. We offer a rare chance to help develop our youth and alike to be part of an elite few who have received the many gifts chess is already providing in their lives.
