International Chess Day special: Did you know about this chess club in Udaipur?

They say chess is a game of intellect and intelligence. Rightfully said!

Chess is a game of imagination and strategy. Absolutely!

It’s a game that provides an order, wit and growth in one’s life. In fact, there have been studies which support the claim that chess improves an individual’s organizational and analytical skills. The game of chess also helps in making new wonderful habits of planning and making careful and decisive moves in life and most importantly it teaches patients.  It teaches that if we have taken the step forward, it’s irreversible but, for future we can obviously improvise and do better than the last move.

Our lakecity is not at all in lack of champions and their stories and continuing to this tradition Chess in lakecity club has contributed in making the list of achievements a longer one.
