José González García

José González García (born August 12, 1973) is a Spanish-Mexican chess grandmaster, trainer and writer.

After four years of living in Hungary, in 1999, he put an end to his first European period returning to Mexico, where he got an offer to join a chess school for talented players in Yucatán Peninsula.

The years of inactivity as a player, where he worked only in the interest of his pupils, reached an end as he returned to the competitive chess, winning the Memorial Capablanca in 2003 [1] and achieving the bronze medal, on the third board of the Mexican team at Calvia Chess Olympiad in 2004.

That same year his career as a trainer got a new and important boost as he was selected to direct Barcelona's Chess Training Centre.

He is a member of the editing team of the most prestigious Spanish language chess magazine, Peón de Rey [3] publication where he writes articles on a variety of themes on a regular basis since 2016.
