Dear Colleagues,

We are announcing the ACP Tour 2022!

After a hiatus due to the pandemic, when barely any tournaments took place, the ACP Tour will return this year.

The situation in Ukraine affected the whole world, with the chess world facing its own difficulties.

ACP gathered the most important policy-makers and independent thinkers for a panel discussion on the burning topics of the war in Ukraine and the fate of the Russian chess players.
 

Of late my dreams have become darker and I don’t dream of the future anymore. I just dream of my childhood and places I used to frequent when I was younger. A few years back I had a vivid dream of a nuclear weapon exploding in London; and even more recently walking in the capital in the night and jets roaring ahead, on the way to some war in which we are all invested.

Dear Colleagues,

First and foremost, Happy International Women's Day! We salute all the brave women who have found the passion and motivation to enter and succeed in a men-dominated sport. The more women there are in chess, the better the chess world will be.

We are happy that we can finally announce our new website!

ACP would like to offer free Premium membership for 2022 to all Ukrainian players.

Premium members are eligible to play for the special ACP prizes at the upcoming EICC in Slovenia. They are also eligible for the ACP Tour.

Please write an email our secretary (secretary@chessprofessions.org) and let us know.

Dear Colleagues,

The new year brings a new period for the ACP. We will try to do and create something that so far hasn't existed in the chess world.
