Teachers from around Guyana introduced to chess
With Errol Tiwari
The newly established Guyana Chess Federation scored an imperceptible victory last week towards the promotion of the ancient board game when it lectured to teachers from 16 sporting districts throughout the country.
They came from schools in the North West, Essequibo Coast, Wakenaam, Leguan, Berbice, Linden, Kwakwani, the East Coast, West Demerara and Georgetown. The majority had never experienced chess before, but if I read the temper of their curiosities correctly, they were thrilled at the realization that they were being introduced to the game.
