My Story
From the chessboards of Bosnia to the bustling streets of New York City, Saudin's journey unfolded. Before his move to NYC in 1996, he had already made a mark as a top-tier chess player in Europe.
But instead of pursuing more tournaments, Saudin decided to share his passion for chess with the next generation. In 1998, he founded NYChessKids, LLC, a place where children could learn and play chess in a fun and engaging way. Over the years, NYChessKids has grown into a hub for chess education, offering programs in schools, organizing tournaments, and even selling chess books and gear.
In Saudin's classes, it's not just about the moves; it's about creating a friendly and enjoyable atmosphere where students can fall in love with the game.
