A future world chess champion

About the little fellow

Robert-Gabriel SAVA (born 13.07.2010), member of Central Chess Club, is the blitz chess national vice-champion of Romania in 2018 among the 8 years old boys. He is a happy kid passionate about the game of kings, with great desire to become the strongest player in the world. He has a tremendous intrinsic motivation which helps him train more than 20 hours a week and participate in at least one tournament every month.

2018 was the year Robert proved to be one the most promising talents of his generation, therefore I want to give him the opportunity to take his passion to the right level of performance. His chess activity can be followed on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RobertSavaOficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/christiansensava Chess-DB: https://chess-db.com/public/pinfo.jsp?id=1265725

About the chess education

My name is Christiansen SAVA and I am Robert's trainer. I am also his father and manager, so it is very cost effective for any sponsor, because I travel with him as a parent and coach. I am a chess trainer with FIDE license and I hold the title of National Master in chess.

He is supported by:

1. Alter MOVE Association (NGO established to promote chess as an education tool). Through the „Check-Mate” Program we finance Robert's training and some minor expenses
2. Central Chess Club (the oldest and the biggest junior chess club in Romania). The club supports some of the expenses for the domestic tournaments.

Funding request & Rewards for backers

For the support of the community I want to give something back. I am a good chess trainer, I will offer chess training and chess materials to the sponsors, following the scheme presented on the right side of this page. Moreover, because I organize chess tournaments in Bucharest, I will offer free-entry to certain sponsors. Any amount is highly appreciated, and will be spent transparently. I will keep the track of the funding process, and I will update this page weekly.
