The Academy helped organize the Kasparov Chess Festival in Radenci, which brought together 650 chess players from 33 countries, and also held its international chess camp, welcoming 65 young players from around the world.
The season featured the highly successful Garry Kasparov Trainers Conference, attended by 150 participants, and the Academy is especially proud of its educational program, built on Botvinnik’s four-level system.
Participants in Kasparov Chess Foundation programs achieved remarkable results this season, including Anastasia Hnatyshyn becoming European Women's Champion and IGM Ihor Samunenkov winning the gold medal at the 2026 Samarkand Olympiad.
The Academy now turns to its next season, which will run from January 9 to June 23, 2027, and will feature six exclusive masterclasses with Veselin Topalov and a special masterclass with Garry Kasparov.
The KCF Academy 2027 season will offer a complete online chess training experience led by Garry Kasparov and a team of world-class grandmasters, with a focus on strategic and practical thinking in chess.
