The Mysterious Game of Chess


I have one queen, you have a bishop, try to checkmate me before it’s too late.

Chess is a two player board game played on a chessboard. It can be played almost everywhere, from parks to online, chess can be played almost wherever you want. The purpose is to “checkmate” the king by making it impossible for it to move without dying in the 64-square board. There are 16 pieces which are the same for both players, certain pieces can only move in certain ways. Chess is believed to be originated from India, but it is played all around the world.
Mr.Perez has been playing chess ever since he was little, when his uncle gave him his very own chess set for Christmas. He has been in chess clubs and tournaments in a variety of cities, he played for a chess club, participating in a Chess League. For the last three years Escuela Bella Vista has hosted a chess tournament for students. Mr. Perez hopes to be able to give more time to students to play their match considering they have 20-25 minutes per match. There are plenty of great chess students and as Mr.Perez said, “there is a pure love for this amazing and mysterious game”. Keep practicing and don’t forget, there will be at least one tournament per year.
