This is an introduction to chess for adults who always wanted to learn the game!

We offered chess for kids this summer and had a lot of parents who wanted to learn too, so Robert has agreed to try a few classes for adults. This class will meet on 2 consecutive Sundays, for 3 hours each day.

Robert will cover the following topics:

• Chess history

• How to correctly set up the board

• Chess notation

• Basic and special chess moves

• Checkmate, stalemate and draws

• Playing the opening

Play will be included as time permits. Boards and pieces will be provided.

For parents with younger children we are also offering Parent and Progeny Chess on our KidZone page.
