Objective of the study was to consider the problems of psychological preparation of chess players at the stage of higher sportsmanship.
Methods and structure of the study. A theoretical analysis of the regulatory documents of the Ministry of Sports and the Chess Federation of Russia, as well as the works of scientists and practitioners in the sport of chess has been carried out. Conceptual approaches to the implementation of effective psychological preparation of chess players are generalized and abstracted.
Results and conclusions. It was revealed that numerous studies of scientists and practitioners on the problems of psychological preparation are not systematized, private methods are often descriptive. Despite the fact that the psychological preparation of chess players at the stage of higher sportsmanship is extremely important for achieving the highest possible sports results, this has not been adequately reflected in the main regulatory and program documents of the Ministry of Sports and the Russian Chess Federation. The experience of implementing sports training for members of the national team of the Russian State Social University, which took 2nd place at the IV All-Russian Summer Universiade in the sport of chess (Kazan, 2014), is considered. The experiment made it possible to reveal the dynamics of the ratio of indicators of psychological preparation to changes in the ratings of athletes in the system of the International Chess Federation (FIDE) by stages of competitive and training activities.

Keywords: chess sport, computer sport, psychological training, digitalization, sports training system.
