Press release by Infinite Chess
The United Nations recognizes April 2 as the Autism Awareness Day. At FIDE, we’re determined to help children with ASD to learn chess. Chess improves social skills, reduces anxiety, and facilitates overall development.
Middlegame Secrets Vol.1 + Vol.2
Let us learn together how to find the best spot for the queen in the early middlegame, how to navigate this piece around the board, how to time the queen attack, how to decide whether to exchange it or not, and much more!
Our Infinite Chess Project started in 2019 as a small pilot project. In three years, it has gained momentum and expanded to 10 countries: Albania, France, Gibraltar, Latvia, Malaysia, Mongolia, Morocco, South Africa, Spain, and Turkey.
“Chess is an excellent tool to make societies better. With social chess initiatives, FIDE educates youth, empowers women, integrates the less privileged and finds new ways to satisfy all special needs. Building on practical experiences of teachers who work with children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD), FIDE has devised the Infinite Chess project, where chess is used for improving the socio-emotional welfare of such special kids”, said the project leader, WIM Anastasia Sorokina.
The Project runs in cooperation with the FIDE Social Commission. It aims to increase knowledge and awareness of chess for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and study the benefits of introducing them to chess. We develop various teaching methods and give practical advice to teachers and parents.

Master Class Vol.14 - Vasily Smyslov
Smyslov cultivated a clear positional style and even in sharp tactical positions often relied more on his intuition than on concrete calculation of variations. Let our authors introduce you into the world of Vasily Smyslov.
With the support of the International Olympic Committee, the first educational program was launched: “Methodological guide for teachers to conduct chess classes when working with children with autism spectrum disorder”. In the meantime, an Erasmus funding application was submitted in order to carry out extensive research.
The program is available in four languages, English, French, Spanish, and Russian. You can download it here: Program – FIDE Infinite Chess Project.
Our dedicated YouTube playlist collects the conferences and seminars that have been conducted so far, and we welcome everyone to check these materials: Infinite Chess Playlist.
