ABOUT US
We strongly believe chess brings together a multidimentional cornucopia of good.
Granted some may imply the very sence of competition might lead to challenges, we contest that with the very particular way honor and honesty is brought to the game.
That would be a topic for days of material.
Chess has a way for winning, for loosing, for surprise, for questioning, for learning and mistake very few other activities have.
At the same time, the togetherness, the immersion, the growth, the discovery and the peacefulness of its practise will accompany the innitiated for life.
Chess, though is an endangered species, and we are here to provide humble haven for everybody looking for its light.
