Chess at it's Best
Of all pastimes, it has been generally allowed by all who have had even the least insight into the game that Chess is the most noble, as well as the most fascinating. Chess is played around the world by millions of enthusiasts.

Elaine Pritcharii (80years old), a very good chess player from Germany, has said, "chess is an international passport and through the game you will have friends in all the cities of the world."

Today more people play chess than that of basketball, baseball, and soccer put together. Chess has a language of its own, and therefore many relationships have been forged, friendships are developed using the pieces and squares as a tool to interact on a multitude of levels.

Chess is an art because creativity and spontaneity are keys to success. Chess is a science because there are proven approaches and strategies that work. Chess has this and even more values for students, chess is more than a game since a teacher can transfer many aspects of this motivational tool to other important subjects.
