Alexandra Kosteniuk participates in April 6 Day of Sport for Peace
I am glad to announce that I will participate in the Peace and Sport International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, on April 6, 2014, and will play a goodwill simul on www.chessking.com at 8 PM Moscow time. More details will follow soon.
You will recall I was named Champion for Peace (see Press Release, with other champions for Peace, among which you can find champions Novak Djokovic, Yelena Isinbayeva, Paula Radcliffe, Marie-José Pérec and many more) and inaugurated a Chess for Peace program in Puerto Tejada, Colombia. I also supported the project “Chess for Creativity and Leadership” in Palestine.
Lots of famous athletes will be participating also and donating their time for this great world event, organized by Peace & Sport (see their Facebook page), which is a neutral and apolitical international organization under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II of Monaco.
Purchase anything from the Chess King shop or from the new huge Chess King Training DVD and Download shop, using either coupon codes 5dOFF ($5 off for orders >$25) or 10dOFF ($10 off for orders > $50) and all money received will go to help me promote chess with kids in the world.
