Coach Colin
FIDE DEVELOPMENTAL INSTRUCTOR (DI)
FIDE SCHOOL TRAINER (SI)
ARBITER
Before chess, there was football. And after that — softball.
Colin grew up a competitive athlete, proudly representing his school’s softball team and clinching the coveted East Zone 2nd.
Later, he coached kids aged 4 to 11 on the football field, always focusing on building strong fundamentals, teamwork, and self-belief.
But it was when his own child picked up chess that everything shifted. For the past 10 years, Colin has been deeply immersed in the game — learning, guiding, and coaching from the sidelines as a chess dad.
Now, he’s made the bold decision to turn that personal journey into a greater mission.Coach Colin believes in preparing kids not just to play the game, but to think like players — with strategy, resilience, and a spark of healthy competitiveness.
To him, chess is a sport, and chess players should be trained, supported, and celebrated like true sportspeople. That’s the energy he brings to every lesson.
