A Nice touch. Move of the Day

AfriForum helps Chess SA with a court case against unlawful suspension 12/08/2023

Well, the debate rages on. Hendrik Du Toit (Chessa President) offers his viewpoints on the matter of chess, ranging from the start of his taking office in chess until the current drama that's going on.

It's really funny when you have a certain side of the facts and you hear him painting himself as the Savior of Chess, but I digress

Let me know what you think. I might do a video on my take on this whole matter.

AfriForum helps Chess SA with a court case against unlawful suspension AfriForum brought a court application to set aside the South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee’s (SASCOC) decision to suspend Chess SA. SASC...

Erudite: having or showing great knowledge or learning.
The responsibility of learning in chess does not end with the player, or his/her coach. Those who came before must guide those who are here now. The ruling bodies (federations) must also have an active part in guiding the development of such players. In South Africa at current, we have a few players, under the age of 18, who have crossed the 2200 mark, but alas! where is the guidance, the GM Training Programs, the compulsory tournaments the players must attend, and the bribery to keep the player in the game? (free entry to a tournament upon meeting certain conditions deal)

We can do better. All have a responsibility to shoulder.

This applies to chess. Chess is not an end in itself, but a means to an end. We want responsible, well developed, good decision makers and community builders. Chess is a mere training ground to prepare the soil of the mind for this characteristic work. With chess must come foundations for sound business principles, upright political leaders, character-instilled solvers of problems, and human beings who understand what it means to be human.

Are you predicting your fall, or your uprising?

A little inspiration for coaches

04/08/2023

If you have any info on how to coach morality, business, thinking solving problems to kids using chess, please let me know. I believe chess is a strong tool, but if it's not linked to life directly (i.e. in coaching) then we are raising up a generation of intellectual chess players - not intellectual in other spaces.

If the is one item that leads to improvement, it is the analysis of games. One thing I learnt is here is that analysis is not about what you could've done right during the game, rather it is the process of searching for what is right. That's why players who use engines take a long time to improve, because that searching is missing. Analysis is good for the chess player not for the sake of finding the correct moves, but for analysis sake. You can find moves in analysis, and though they might all be wrong and disproved by the engine, yet emerge a stronger player, because you've fine tuned the method of finding these moves in a game - because of analysis.

Chess Played at a High level. This level of play must be thoroughly studied, thoroughly absorbed and thoroughly practiced.

Some blitz matches to get the blood going. SA University team blitz challenge. A bad performance but oh well....

What a Move! I believe if our players get a proper regiment of such fantastic moves (and games) they will grow rapidly.
