even faster than those who have not been engaged in the said game. It builds memory skills,
concentration, self-confidence, self-esteem and in making disciplined decision

Arbiters are critical in planning, running a chess tournament, and decision making. The
Arbiters are the connecting link between the organizer and the players of a tournament. They have not
only to control the games, but also to ensure the best conditions, for the players not to be disturbed

the players
