Members of SGChessHub@JurongSpring celebrated International Chess Day 2024 and had an engaging session with GM Kevin Goh, our IG Host, on 20th July 2024 followed by an impromptu mini-rapid chess games facilitated by IGL NM/NA Franz Grafil.

It is also FIDE 100th Anniversary, a prominent milestone, signifying how far competitive chess has evolved over the past century. GM Kevin Goh referenced his National Championship 2023 game in his lecture on "Basic Calculation and Visualization Skill" with practical applications.

We look forward to gleaning more bite-size wisdoms from our IGLs in future sessions. Happy International Chess Day!!
