The WestBridge Anand Chess Academy (WACA) and its contribution to Indian chess

The WestBridge Anand Chess Academy kicked off in January 2021 with its first sessions. It’s an initiative by 5-time World Champion Vishy Anand along with the well-know investment firm WestBridge Capital to ensure that the talents of promising youngsters is taken to its right conclusion and that they become top players in the world and hopefully a few of them would also fight for the highest title in the world.

The academy began with Gukesh, Praggnanandhaa, Nihal Sarin, Raunak Sadhwani and R. Vaishali. Later on Leon Mendonca joined and then Arjun Erigaisi was also added, Recently we had the 8th WACA mentee in Savitha Shri. Vishy Anand is the chief mentor of the course and he is ably supported by his team of trainers – Yusupov, Gelfand, Gajewski and Chanda.

Although all of these youngsters have their permanent trainers, WACA helps them to get an edge in their career, which speeds up their progress. In this video we bring you everything that you need to know about WACA along with interviews of Vishy Anand, Sandeep Singhal, Gukesh, Pragg, Nihal, Ruanak, Leon, Vaishali and Savitha.

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵‍💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.

♘ Chess Quotes

“Self-confidence is very important. If you don’t think you can win, you will take cowardly decisions in the crucial moments, out of sheer respect for your opponent. You see the opportunity but also greater limitations than you should. I have always believed in what I do on the chessboard, even when I had no objective reason to. It is better to overestimate your prospects than underestimate them.”
