The main purpose of the SOU chess club is to provide a space for SOU students & alumni to play chess casually, learn tactics together, and discuss current events in the global chess community. This club is open to players of all skill levels including new players who have never played before, but are interested in learning. Chess has been known to have an intimidating stigmatization surrounding it, which can make prospective players feel overwhelmed or intimidated when learning how to play. The SOU chess club aims to change that commonly held predisposition and to create an environment of friendly sportsmanship, community, and collective growth. Players that are seeking a more competitive atmosphere can also find opportunities to challenge similarly skilled or higher level players in friendly tournaments against fellow members or represent SOU in tournaments that may be held locally, for example.
