Chess enthusiasts, rejoice! The recent news of a major Hollywood film centered around chess, “Checkmate,” has the chess world buzzing. Here at Summit School of Chess, we’re thrilled to see the game of kings continue to capture the public imagination.
The film, based on a book proposal by Ben Mezrich (author of “The Social Network”), will delve into the controversial 2022 match between Magnus Carlsen and Hans Niemann, a story riddled with accusations of cheating. While the details of the film remain under wraps, it’s sure to bring the drama and intrigue of competitive chess to a wider audience.
This renewed interest in chess presents a fantastic opportunity for young minds in the Denver area. At Summit School of Chess, we offer a variety of programs designed to nurture a love for the game and develop essential skills that go far beyond the chessboard.
Why Chess Benefits Your Child
Just like the characters in “Checkmate,” our students learn:
- Sharpened Thinking Skills:
- Strategic thinking and planning: Chess teaches students to anticipate their opponent’s moves and formulate winning strategies, a valuable skill in any field.
- Problem-solving: Every chess game presents a unique puzzle to be solved. We guide students to develop critical thinking skills to overcome challenges on and off the board.
- Enhanced Focus and Concentration:
- Concentration and focus: Maintaining focus during a chess game translates to better concentration in school and other activities.
