Why Play Chess?
Chess is fun! It is a lifetime hobby, and also so much more. Once mastered can be played with family and friends of all ages and nationalities.
Through chess, we learn how to analyse a situation by focusing on important factors and by eliminating distractions.
Players can become better problem solvers in their daily lives. Chess is a game that involves strategy, risk management, creative thinking, and the ability to manage your emotions.
- Chess is a fantastic tool for developing character at a young age such as resilience, patience, sportsmanship.
- Understand that decisions have consequences, “growth mind-set” – learns from setbacks.
- Chess encourages creative thinking, pattern recognition.
- Chess also brings together all ages, nationalities, backgrounds, and gender.
There will be a tournament during the term with prizes for all including a winner's trophy and medals for runners-up.
Chess club members will have to practice good sportsmanship and fair play.
