Scholar's Mate

The Association has ceased publication of the magazine. Below you will find the old publications available in electronic format.

SCHOLAR’S MATE is a chess magazine written specifically for kids.
You can enjoy it on-line, for free!

The Chess’n Math Association publishes Scholar’s Mate four times per year as a PDF document. You can read the “e-magazine” on your computer screen or print it out.

Each issue is full of puzzles, tournament reports, instructive articles, and stories with Kiril the Pawn and his pals. The editor and main contributor is national master Jeff Coakley, author of the successful Winning Chess For Kids books. Almost every page has a cartoon drawing by noted illustrator Antoine Duff.
