"The priority task is the programme "Chess in Schools". Our goal is that the children should study chess both at electives courses and on an ongoing basis. Secondly, we must concentrate on teaching of trainers for schools and kindergartens. We plan to open a representation office of the International Chess Academy in the Republic and to teach trainers in the Institute of Physical Education and Sport of Yakutia. Large-scale tournaments at the level of World and Continental Championships are needed to popularize chess. We will support the holding of these events," concluded the head of FIDE.
