Connecticut Chess Magazine and Coventry Chess Club are each philanthropic enterprises by Rob Roy.

They are not governmental initiatives nor are they business endeavors.

They are private initiatives by Rob Roy, for the public good, focusing on quality of life, and on chess in Connecticut.

They should never be misconstrued to represent the State of Connecticut, the Town of Coventry Connecticut, nor with any other chess associations.

The monthly tournaments in Coventry are conducted by Rob Roy acting as an independent organizer, and not by any chess club, state chapter, nor federation.

I have never written for, nor spoken for, anyone besides myself, Rob Roy, acting as an independent chess journalist.

“The most important thing is self-confidence. So many people will doubt your abilities in life - never listen to them. If you do not truly believe that you can make it to the Grandmaster title, for example, you will never do so.”

David J Aldi No, they shouldn't be held in a country that views everyone with different beliefs with disrespect and of infidel persuasion. I understand that the Iranian Chess Federation defaulted on the agreed upon prize fund contract and that FIDE had to pick up the bill for the recent Women's World Championship.
