according to the National Int’l Chess Championship for Pri Sch which is held annually in March every year (first weekend after T1), ALL medal winners Under 7 age (P1 kids) group have already been SCF rated prior to the event…i.e. most of them already attended trainings and competitions recognized by SCF before P1

wonder if anyone interested in registering their kids who falls under 4? maybe we can see if we can form a class? My son keeps asking me to register him for the chess class but he is under 4 at the moment.

if your son is keen, why not sign up the course directly with SCF?

I understand SCF really encourage young beginners to participate even in the primary Under 8 category...

if your son is keen and start learning early, surely he will have much advantage....
