This training is proposed to be online for 10 hours and to start as early as two months before the Olympiad.

As before, we will be inviting all FIDE licensed trainers who are interested to assist teams to register themselves with TRG by 1 April, after which we will post the list on the TRG website and also inform those Federations who have successfully applied for this training to pick on a first come first serve basis.

We ask you confirm your interest and your language preference no later than 24 January 2022 so we can look to develop a budget.

If we do hear not from you, we will assume you are not interested.

Please also be advised that it is a requirement that we have at least a 80 percent participation at the training by members of your team so we can justify the expense by showing your commitment. 

Thank you and best wishes

Peter Long

TRG Secretary
