Chess South Africa’s National Coaching Programme brings together teachers and trainers from the Free State and Northern Cape for a practical Coach Certification Weekend at Bins Lodge in Bloemfontein, Free State, from 17 to 19 July 2026.
Over the weekend, participants will learn how to plan effective lessons, coach and motivate learners, set meaningful goals, communicate with parents, and run chess clubs and tournaments.
No advanced chess experience is required, only a willingness to learn, teach and help grow the game.
Participants will complete practical assessments and an online test as they work towards an official Chess SA coaching certificate.
Coach the coaches. Empower the teachers. Grow chess across South Africa.
