Our mission

Uganda has the talent.
It needs the structure.

Chess Uganda exists because finding a serious coach in Uganda today means asking around at clubs, scrolling through scattered WhatsApp groups, or guessing from social media. There is no single, verified, professional directory.

We are building it. A premium, mobile-first marketplace where verified coaches list their credentials, expertise, and rates — and serious players can find them in minutes, not weeks.

For Players

  • Stop guessing — every listed coach is verified by our team.
  • Filter by location, FIDE title, fees, and specialization.
  • Direct contact details — no middleman, no commission.
  • Download study materials shared by your coach.

For Coaches

  • Get discovered by serious, paying clients.
  • Showcase your titles, biography, and training fees.
  • Upload PGNs, puzzles, and PDFs to build credibility.
  • Listed alongside FIDE-affiliated peers across Uganda.

Built by Ugandans, for Ugandan chess.

Chess Uganda is independently operated and FIDE-affiliated. We work directly with the Uganda Chess Federation and verify every coach listed on the platform.
