Most recent trace

The academy's own site lists group classes held six days a week, Monday to Saturday, free of charge, and a calendar plan for 2026 with tournaments through the year. A news post dated 16 September 2026 announces qualification-category tournaments run with the Chess Academy Club from 7 to 17 October 2026, with the first round on 7 October 2026 at 16:30. The chess-results server lists 93 events dated between 9 January 2025 and 7 October 2026 organised by the academy at its Shevchenko Street address; the latest is dated 7 October 2026. The admission page says children are put on a waiting list throughout the school year and are told by telephone when a new group forms, and its coach menu lists twelve coaches whose pupil groups are shown under the Yerevan main building. The FIDE profile is linked only where the name is unique among Armenian players or the title the site prints matches the one on the profile; for the other coaches the profile is not linked because several players carry the same name or the spelling differs.
