Dear Parents,

The Macau World Chess Club's two-weekend Open Day event has come to a successful conclusion. We sincerely appreciate your genuine participation and thoughtful inquiries—your support made this event truly special.  

We were delighted to discover so many children in Macau who share a passion for chess. Your patience, kindness, and deep care for your children's growth touched us deeply. While each child's understanding of chess varies, their sparkling enthusiasm for learning was equally inspiring. We noticed that many have built their skills through self-study on computers but rarely had the chance to experience real over-the-board games—this further strengthened our commitment to providing a professional platform.  

Our club takes pride in offering well-equipped training and playing facilities, supported by FIDE-certified coaches and referees. This summer, we look forward to witnessing your children's continued growth on their chess journey!  

Thank you once again for your trust.  

Best regards,

Macau World Chess Club
