THE WORLD

There are those who have always wanted to learn chess – to play, not to move tiles without rhyme or reason – and have had neither time nor access to good teachers. Home confinement for the coronavirus pandemic may be a good time. The new president of the Alicante chess club, the Professor of Communication, Advertising and Public Relations at the University of Alicante, Eloy Caballero, and his team start classes online on Monday: contraelcoronavirusajedrez.com (and '.es', from where to redirect).

Caballero explains that the initiative arose after March 1, when the presidency of the Alicante club agreed. With their team they concluded that a contingency plan had to be established in the face of the situation that was coming over the disease “since chess is a cheap sport that can be practiced anywhere and from a multitude of online platforms “. Caballero, who returned to chess 5 years after 20 years without playing, now heads a club with 80 partners from all walks of life, profession or experiences who are tired of hearing their friends and acquaintances who would like to learn to play, but they have never been able for different reasons “, that” they only know how to move the pieces “or” that they had never imagined that it would be so entertaining. That is why at 12:30 today the program will be presented that will vary in daily classes from half an hour to three quarters of an hour every day. For those who don't know anything or those who want to learn to play “with sense”. Classes will be saved in a youtube.com video library.

But what is meaningful play? Knight points out that “chess is aa tool for life, to learn to think to plan, useful for a teacher like me or for a lawyer in a trial or for a doctor as therapy “. At the same time, it encourages creativity. And it is that he understands chess as an individual game “but at the same time a collective one, since all the coordinated pieces must be put in defense of the king or attack”. In this sense, this virtual school runs away from the technicalities of the plays with names of famous Russian players that are learned by heart, box by box. His teachers intend to teach chess as a plan. Through the live broadcasts, the volunteer teachers will interact with the students and teach the rules of the game and the first steps to learn chess. Gradually, they will be adding concepts so that anyone can understand the meaning of the game. Each live connection will generate a video that can be viewed at any time.

The teachers will be Amador Gonzlez, teacher of the International Chess Federation, coach of the International Chess Federation since 2005 and National Chess coach since 1998. Jorge Gonzlez, doctor, former president of the Sociedad Ajedrecstica Logroesa. Jorge Gonzlez Santamartina, university student of Medicine. Aarn Bendayan, graduated in Labor Relations and Human Resources, is FEDA base and superior monitor and the first board of the Alicante Chess Club. Bernat Serarols, Medical student, you have three International Teacher standards. Antonio Lucas, lawyer, member of the Alicante Chess Club. Adrin Gallardo, ADE student. And his own, Eloy Caballero.
