Chess is one of the oldest board games in the world, and its popularity needs little substantiation. For most Americans, learning chess is simply a rite of passage. In fact, over 45 million people in the U.S. play chess on a weekly or monthly basis, more than tennis and golf combined! Kids start playing the game as young as five years old and adults continue well into senior years. Chess is promoted worldwide as a tool to develop math and verbal aptitude, improve memory and prevent Alzheimer's.
