“By playing chess I learnt to stay concentrated for many hours, which helps me with studying and during exams. Also it taught me to be patient until my opponent would make a mistake and not to overdo things. Last but not least it was the best brain training I could have had growing up.“

“Chess has accompanied me for my whole life and still does. I started as a player in elementary school and ended up playing for the Austrian Women’s National Team, being coach for young chess players and promoting women’s chess in Austria. Due to chess I got the opportunity to discover different cultures and got to know chess players from all over the world.”
