“I would say that chess helped me throughout my life to entertain myself, to develop my competitiveness, my curiosity and so much more. The travel journeys I’ve made all around France and the world to play chess helped me meet great friends and discover new cultures. Most importantly, it helped me realize that chess is above all just a game and there are so many things much more significant in this world.”

“Besides being an exciting game, chess brought me a lot. Chess helped me in my concentration and my time management skills that I use in my daily life. The game taught me to have better self control. Chess offers an escape out of the daily life problems and I can play it all the time. Now I am a chess trainer and pass on my knowledge to youngsters.”
