As we don't know when we'll compete as a team, we're discounting all jerseys in stock and not be replenishing them and offering free shipping for the US:

We will continue to honor our agreement with @womeninchess and donate the same amount per sale.

Today we made the difficult decision to discontinue the Pro Chess League.

We just found out an up-and-coming chess legend, Patrick Falco, has recently passed away. He was a bright light that helped out @NJ_Chess and will be missed by everybody that had the pleasure to meet him.
RIP legacy.com/us/obituaries/nam…
Sad news to hear that Mart Grund has passed away. For those of you unaware, he helped create @chessclubICC , which for the time in the 90s-00s was the premier place to play online; in recent years they're relaunched as a modern competitor.
RIP ilesfuneralhomes.com/obituar…
We've kept tabs on @GMJSindarov and this performance wasn't a surprise!
We look forward to him challenging @DGukesh, as two of the best of the new generation battle it out.
GG!
A touching memoriam to a local NJ chess icon, Joseph Manuli (1967-2024).

Today would have been Daniel Naroditsky’s 30th birthday.
It’s still hard to believe he’s gone.
I’m grateful for the memories, his brilliance, his humor, his kindness, and the impact he made on so many.
His legacy will live on.
Miss you, Danya.
Absolutely tragic. He'll always be one of our favorite commentators and will be missed. RIP Danya.

Carissa Shiwen Yip is the winner of the 2021, 2023, and 2024 U.S. Women’s Chess Championships. In September 2019, she set the record as the youngest female chess player to defeat a grandmaster, achieving this feat at the age of ten.
She is currently the 19th seed in the Women’s World Rapid Championship and the second-highest-ranked American in the event, after Alice Lee.
You can follow her at @carissayipchess.

Two and a half decades after GM @MauriceAshley became the first African American grandmaster, GM-elect @IMBrewChess has climbed to the top of the mountain.

We commentated a few of his games from the National Online Scholastic Championship back in 2021.
He was in the K-6 section and from our perspective showed the most promise. It's no surprise that a few years later he's achieved the GM title.
Congrats @IMBrewChess! Well earned!
15-year-old Brewington Hardaway has become the first U.S.-born black grandmaster. chess.com/news/view/brewingt…
