Chess Program
Overview
The game of Chess has been played for approximately 1500 years and has been traced back to Indian origins before the sixth century, A.D.
It is a game of tactics and strategy culminating in the winner trapping an opponent into not being able to make any further moves or choice - checkmate!
The 64 squares, 8x8 grid board contains 'pieces' representing varying importance and mobility and operates on both attack and defense principles.
Deep Blue - IBM
In modern times, the game has taken on international competitiveness and names such as Gary Kasparov have become associated with talented and skillful Chess players, although he was defeated by a computer called 'Deep Blue' in 1997.
Art & Strategy
The game is played with traditional physically crafted boards and pieces, as well as electronically on a range of devices from computers to smart phones. It has also taken on artistic properties in that chess boards and pieces are often hand crafted and sculpted into beautiful (and expensive!) works of art.
Who is this for?
There is no one category intended for an interest or pursuit of understanding and playing Chess. Anyone - young or old - can learn to play the game and will generally find it fascinating, competitive, and often compelling.
Looking ahead from early age
Engendering an interest in the game from an early age encourages an ability to make informed decisions about life in general based on a greater awareness of 'looking ahead' instead of simply being spontaneous and potentially making regrettable choices.
Chess at Teach Bahrain
Learning to play Chess is all about making informed decisions and trying to develop the technique of 'think before you speak or take action'. It is, in many ways, a fundamental principle of applying basic skills to one's own life. In that context, learning Chess is an invaluable skill and experience.
At Teach Bahrain, we introduce the game of Chess through an explanation of its process and purpose, and apply various methods and approaches through different 'gambits' (moves and sacrifices) in order to understand the technique of gaining advantage.
Progression for Grand Master
The next logical progression is to actually play the game. We set up sessions in which Chess players can quietly concentrate on pitting their skills against other players and thereby gain valuable experience in the progression of the skills they've learned.
We encourage players to be part of the Chess Club and organise tournaments and contests in which players can further their rankings towards becoming the world's next Chess Master!
