Chess as a sport
Ajedrez como deporte. Cuando escuchamos o leemos la palabra sport, the first thing that comes to mind is an athlete. Therefore, when we hear it said that the Chess is a sport... It can be difficult to relate the concept to the same image. For the definition of sport covers both the notion of physical activity, but also that of rules, customs in pursuit of a competition. And then?
If we talk about physical activity or being "active", we can refer to Rapid Chess, where the activity and movements are based on naming the moves.
Sport or not, at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney were held for the first time, exhibitions of Chess. Throughout the tournaments, it was tried to be included in the next games. But so far, there has been no consensus.
Mientras tanto, la Federación Mundial de Ajedrez organiza su propia olimpíada, donde equipos de todo el mundo compiten entre sí por llegar el primer puesto. El origen de estos campeonatos datan desde tiempos remotos. Ajedrez como deporte y ayuda al desarrollo intelectual.
