Want to pair your students for casual games?

Create manual pairings on the fly!

Do you ask your students to play casual/friendly games at your academy or club? You would manually pair them by telling them who they’re playing against, right?

With Chesslang, you could do the same online, and you have 100% control! With just a few clicks, you can create the pairings manually. 

Create up to 25 pairings (pair 50 students) at a time

Set the time control

Allow/Disallow students to offer draw

Allow/Disallow students to resign

Start multiple games at a time!

Want to see how your students play?

Watch all the games live with a
multi-board view!

If you’re like most chess coaches, you would want to see how all your students are playing.

After starting the games, you can quickly switch to the ‘Live Games’ tab and see all the live games simultaneously.

“Are the
games saved
for analysis?”

All students’ games
are saved in the
Game History!

  • All games are saved to the history of games for analysis.
  • You can even drill down to a particular student to see the games played by that student.
  • You can download the PGN of all games
  • Annotate and share the analysis with students.

Encourage students to fight till the end!

Restrict them from offering draw
and resigning the game

Do your students lack motivation? Do they often agree to draw and/or resign the game for just losing a pawn or a piece? How to encourage them to play till the end?

You can do that by disabling the draw and/or resign options. This way, your students have to play the game till the end. 

Students can play from ANY device!

Our platform works on all devices. Your students can play from their mobile phones, laptops, and even tablets! 

What coaches say about “Match and Watch”?

Most coaches underestimate the power of casual games. I did too. We always think that friendly games ruin the kids’ play since they don’t take it seriously, but it’s just about doing it the right way. With the manual pairings, I pair students who don’t get along too well so that it breaks the ice. And I was able to achieve it successfully. Thanks to Chesslang!

Thanks for providing me with the option to disable draw and resign. I’ve been looking for this option for months. Some of my students are siblings and they often end the games quickly by agreeing to draw. Now that I’ve restricted this, I see a drastic change in their playing pattern. They’ve become more courageous now.

I’ve always wanted to do this. The authority and control I have as a coach is really amazing. I’ve started using this regularly now. I call all my students to come online, and I conduct 3-4 rounds of casual games on a daily basis. The kids love it too!

It’s like conducting a mini tournament and that’s exactly why I love it! With your tournaments feature, I was able to conduct formal tournaments in Swiss & Quad formats. But this manual pairings for casual games strikes the balance between a ‘friendly game’ and a ‘tournament game’ perfectly. Many thanks!
