CCL Adds 2 High End Grandmasters to Coaching Staff

May 5, 2016

Ivanisevic,Ivan_2016_Karlsruhe.jpegMiloš_Perunović_2013Please welcome GM Milos Perunovic (left) and GM Ivan Ivanisevic (right) to CCL.

Both Milos and Ivan are rated around 2650 FIDE, which translate to about 2750 USCF.  They are not full time coaches but rather are professional chess players, who spend most of their time preparing for and playing in the chess circuit. Milos competed in the previous World Cup.  Thus scheduling lesson with them will be on an intermittent basis, when they have available time.  You are welcome to use them as a full time coach but I see their real value being for our higher rated players who want to work on a highly theoretical opening, system, or methodology.  Both Milos and Ivan have a very high theoretical understanding of chess.

We want to bring the very best to CCL, at every level, and that is what we feel that we are doing by integrating Milos and Ivan into our program.
