Chess is a game and a sport which has an aesthetic quality which can make it an art form too. A game for the mind that can be played with eyes open or closed, it will help develop your memory, concentration, focus and logical and spatial thinking. Chess has enthralled people for 1500 years, with only a few tweaks to the rules throughout the centuries and in today's world where computers are now better players, chess can still capture people's imagination and give you the opportunity to discipline yourself and learn and improve from your failures every time you play.
Those who are new or relatively new to chess and want to learn the basics. Those who'd like to start playing chess at home or a club and want to build confidence first.
