There were professionals present to offer their expertise on the game and to discuss how they believe it can have a beneficial effect on the life of an individual.
It has been stated by Tony Davis, a national chess master, that anyone may learn the game in the manner that they consider most appropriate.
“Well, that’s the thing I love about chess, everyone can learn the way they want to learn, especially with all the computer technology. I taught myself to play, I read the rules, and just progressed from there.”
