Chess Projects is a sports association specialized in teaching that focuses on the highly formative aspect of chess, integrating this activity with others and inserting it into a wider educational context where every aspect, including having fun, is carefully looked after.
The "Sport, Chess and Nature" Summer Camp, thought-up in 2012 by the president of Chess Projects, Matteo Zoldan, is reaching it's 5th edition in 2016, obtaining a growing success as the years go by.
Thanks to the Scacchi a Scuola project, that it created and divulged, and to the dedication of the school staff, it is present in in many milanese schools such as: American School, Istituto Leone XIII, Istituto Zaccaria, Istituto Novaro Ferrucci, Istituto Marcelline, Istituto Mater Divinae Gratiae, Istituto Mater Mea, Istituto San Paolo and sport centers such as Aspria Harbour Club e Canottieri Olona.The necessity to enrich our educational and sports offer is what lies behind the meeting with "La Bussola" tour operator, company whose primary aim is the creation of sports camps for kids of ages 6-14 and as Chess Projects does promotes the experience of a sporting holiday as a way to favour socialisation, team spirit, and confidence both in yourself and in others through the educational aspects of sports.
One of the key factors is the presence of professionally qualified staff that ensure that the children will have an intense and proactive experience, full of stimulating activities and of course lots of fun
As well as the usual sports, like football, basketball, volleyball, tennis and chess, the summer camp is enriched with other activities such as swimming and water games that are held in the out-door pool, an English and a creative workshop.
The presence of a significant number of young people that take part in either the "Sport, Chess & Nature" summer camp or in the "Campastrello Sport Camp" organised by "La Bussola" Tour Operator, warrantees that there will be homogeneous age-groups in all the activities that take place, and also a balance between the number of boys and girls present, ensuring the harmony and socialisation which are fundamental for having fun.
