She Plays To Win - Be Inspired by Our Chess Queens Paperback / softback
by Lorin D'Costa
Paperback / softback
Description
This book contains games from every singlefemale World Champion, as well as young up and comers, top seasonedprofessionals, streamers, and even a section at Beth Harmon from the recent famedQueen’s Gambit hit show.
This book is not just for girls and women,however. Any chess player can learn from these games and discover female chesshistory, both from the famous players in the past right up to the present day.
How have these games been selected?It is at this point I can mention the realreason- my UK Girls chess project called ‘She Plays To Win’ (SPTW).
This group has officially been going sinceApril 11th 2020.
I had the idea even a few years before, but I wasnot sure how it could be set up.
The unfortunate events of worldwide lock-downprovided the answer, as the switch to being online allowed me to offer zoomlessons for UK girls as well as weekly girls tournaments on the Lichess server. I do this for free and parents have never paid anything to get involved.
Each week I cover a top female player andwe analyse the game.
Over the past year I have built up a large collection ofgames and tactics, which I felt could be published.
It is the most up to datecollection about women’s chess covering a variety of ages and levels.
After just one year, I have over 360 girlsacross the UK signed up, and a further 150 beginners in our new beginnersprogram.
I hope this is just the beginning.Â
