Some of Bottomup's chess coaches team participated in the FIDE school chess instructor course.

This course trained our coaches how to run more effective lessons in schools and equipped our coaches with more resources and chess know-how.

All our coaches managed to score above 60% with some scores reaching 90% .

Completing this course qualifies our coaches to teach at schools.

As BottomUp we are proud of this international achievement.
