Rising Stars of Chess Gaja

July 1 – July 16, 2026
♚
The first half of July kept our Chess Gaja students busy at the board, with strong results rolling in from Georgia all the way to Texas and California. This edition features one especially explosive rating jump alongside a string of steady, well-earned gains that show just how much hard work is paying off across the academy. Whether it was a dramatic climb up the rating ladder or a hard-fought finish against tough competition, every result here reflects real growth and real grit. Congratulations to all our champions on another exciting fortnight of chess! ♟️
