R.I.P.
It is with the utmost sadness that we have to report the death of International Master Michael Basman - the founder of the UK Chess Challenge. His efforts encouraged me and millions of other kids to enjoy the wonderful benefits of this game.
Mike had a wicked sense of humour which could even be seen in his opening choices (1.g4 as white and 1…g5 as black). Just a few days before his untimely death we were joking about how even the World champion Magnus Carlsen was finally adopting his openings in a recent chess.com Titled Tuesday event.
The energy, originality and joy that Mike brought to all his endeavours is a source of great inspiration. He believed that young minds should be encouraged to be rational, compassionate and creative and that through chess and the UK Chess Challenge he could help develop these traits in the next generation. Mike was a fighter at the board and away from it – not afraid to stand up for his beliefs.
Mike leaves behind an incredible chess legacy and I know many of his former students, friends and acquaintances will be deeply saddened by his passing. Our condolences go out to his family and nearest friends. 💙♟
