  • Event lasts 2 hours

Curious about chess, but never had the chance to learn how to play properly? Join us in this beginner-friendly hands-on chess workshop! This session will be conducted by students from Victoria Junior College Strategic Games Club. Participants will be taught some basic checkmates, spotting checkmates, and other strategies, then try the game for themselves under the guidance of our student trainers!

 

The 19 Oct 2024 session will cover International Chess while the 16 Nov 2024 session will cover Chinese Chess. Both types of chess will be available for participants to try their hand at playing after the student trainers’ sharing.
