BOARD GAME: CHESS
BRIEF HISTORY OF CHESS

Precursors to chess originated in India during the Gupta Empire. There, its early form in the 6th century
was known as chaturaṅ ga, which translates as "four divisions (of the military)": infantry, cavalry,
elephantry, and chariotry. These forms are represented by the pieces that would evolve into the modern
pawn, knight, bishop, and rook, respectively.
 Chaturanga starting position. The kings do not face each other; the white king starts on e1 and the
black king on d8.
Objective of the
game
The purpose of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king. This happens when the king is put into
check and cannot get out of check. There are only three ways a king can get out of check: move out of
the way (though he cannot castle!), block the check with another piece, or capture the piece
threatening the king. If a king cannot escape checkmate then the game is over. Customarily the king is
not captured or removed from the board, the game is simply declared over.
Equipment and facilities

 A chess piece, or chessman, is any of the six different movable
objects used on a chessboard to play the game of chess.
 A chessboard is the type of chequerboard used in the board game

chess, over which the chess pieces are laid. It's usually square in
shape, with a peculiar pattern of alternating two colours between
its subdivisions. Wooden boards may use naturally light and dark
brown woods, while plastic and vinyl boards often use brown or
green for the dark squares and shades such as buff or cream for the
light squares. Materials vary widely; while wooden boards are
generally used in high-level games; vinyl, plastic, and cardboard
are common for low-level and informal play. Decorative glass and
marble boards are available but rarely accepted for games rated by
national or international chess federations.
 A chess clock consists of two adjacent clocks with buttons to
stop one clock while starting the other, so that the two clocks
never run simultaneously. Chess clocks are used in chess and
other two-player games where the players move in turn. The
purpose is to keep track of the total time each player takes for
his or her own moves, and ensure that neither player overly
delays the game. Chess clocks were first used extensively in
tournament chess, and are often called game clocks. The first
time that game clocks were used in a chess tournament was in
the London 1883 tournament. Their use has since spread to
tournament Scrabble, shogi, go, and nearly every competitive
two-player board game, as well as other types of games
Rules of the game
 Chess is played on a square board of eight rows (called ranks and denoted with numbers
1 to 8) and eight columns (called files and denoted with letters a to h) of squares. The
colors of the sixty-four squares alternate between light and dark, and are referred to as
"light squares" and "dark squares". The chessboard is placed so that each player has a
white square in the near right hand corner, and the pieces are set out as shown in the
diagram on page 14, with each queen on a square that matches its color.
 Each player begins the game with sixteen pieces: each player's pieces comprise one king,
one queen, two rooks placed at the outermost side of the king and queen, two bishops
which one is place right beside the king and the other one is beside the queen, two
knights which is place between rook and bishops and eight pawns which is place infront
on the royal family. One player, referred to as White, controls the white pieces and the
other player, Black, controls the black pieces; White is always the first player to move.
The colors are chosen either by a friendly agreement, by a game of chance or by a
tournament director. The players alternate moving one piece at a time (with the exception
of castling, when two pieces are moved at the same time). Pieces are moved to either an
unoccupied square, or one occupied by an opponent's piece, capturing it and removing it
from play. With one exception (en passant), all pieces capture opponent's pieces by
moving to the square that the opponent's piece occupies.
 Many tournaments follow a set of common, similar rules. These rules do not necessarily
apply to play at home or online, but you may want to practice with them anyway.
 Touch-move - If a player touches one of their own pieces they must move that piece as
long as it is a legal move. If a player touches an opponent's piece, they must capture that
piece. A player who wishes to touch a piece only to adjust it on the board must first
announce the intention, usually by saying “adjust”.
 Clocks and Timers - Most tournaments use timers to regulate the time spent on each
game, not on each move. Each player gets the same amount of time to use for their entire
game and can decide how to spend that time. Once a player makes a move they then touch
a button or hit a lever to start the opponent's clock. If a player runs out of time and the
opponent calls the time, then the player who ran out of time loses the game (unless the
opponent does not have enough pieces to checkmate, in which case it is a draw).
Special Moves in
Chess
 CASTLING
One other special chess rule is called castling. This move allows you to do two important things all in one move:
get your king to safety (hopefully), and get your rook out of the corner and into the game. On a player's turn he
may move his king two squares over to one side and then move the rook from that side's corner to right next to
the king on the opposite side. (See the example below.) However, in order to castle, the following conditions
must be met:
 it must be that king's very first move
 it must be that rook's very first move
 there cannot be any pieces between the king and rook to move
 the king may not be in check or pass through check
Notice that when you castle one direction the king is closer to the side of the board. That is called castling
"kingside". Castling to the other side, through where the queen sat, is called castling "queenside". Regardless of
which side, the king always moves only two squares when castling.
 PAWN PROMOTION
On reaching the last rank, a pawn must immediately be exchanged, as part of the same move, for [either] a queen,
a rook, a bishop, or a knight, of the same colour as the pawn, at the player's choice and without taking into
account the other pieces still remaining on the chessboard. The effect of the promoted piece is immediate and
permanent!
 EN PASSANT
The last rule about pawns is called “en passant,” which is French for “in passing”. If a pawn moves out two
squares on its first move, and by doing so lands to the side of an opponent's pawn (effectively jumping past the
other pawn's ability to capture it), that other pawn has the option of capturing the first pawn as it passes by. This
special move must be done immediately after the first pawn has moved past, otherwise the option to capture it is
no longer available.
Chess pieces
Movements
THE KING
When a king is under
direct attack by one (or
possibly two) of the
opponent's pieces, the
player is said to be in
check. When in check,
only moves that remove
the king from attack are
permitted. The player
must not make any move
that would place his king
in check. The object of the
game is to checkmate the
opponent; this occurs
when the opponent's king
is in check, and there are
no moves that remove the
king from attack.
The king can move only
one square horizontally,
vertically, or diagonally.
Once in the game, each
king is allowed to make a
special double move, to
castle. Castling consists of
moving the king two
squares towards a rook,
then moving the rook onto
the square over which the
king crossed.
Castling is only
permissible if all of the
following conditions hold:
• The player must
never have moved
both the king and
the rook involved
THE KNIGHT/ HORSE
The knight can jump over occupied squares and moves two spaces horizontally and one
space vertically or vice versa, making an "L" shape. A knight in the middle of the board
has eight squares to which it can move. Note that every time a knight moves, it changes
square color.
THE PAWN
Pawns have the most complex rules of movement: A pawn can move forward one
square, if that square is unoccupied. If it has not moved yet, the pawn has the option of
moving two squares forward, if both squares in front of the pawn are unoccupied. A
pawn cannot move backward. When such an initial two square advance is made that puts
that pawn horizontally adjacent to an opponent's pawn, the opponent's pawn can capture
that pawn "en passant" as if it moved forward only one square rather than two, but only
on the immediately subsequent move. Pawns are the only pieces that capture differently
than they move. They can capture an enemy piece on either of the two spaces adjacent to
the space in front of them (i.e., the two squares diagonally in front of them), but cannot
move to these spaces if they are vacant. If a pawn advances all the way to its eighth rank,
it is then promoted (converted) to a queen, rook, bishop, or knight of the same color. In
practice, the pawn is almost always promoted to a queen.
The player with the white pieces always moves first. Therefore, players generally decide
who will get to be white by chance or luck such as flipping a coin or having one player
guess the color of the hidden pawn in the other player's hand. White then makes a move,
followed by black, then white again, then black and so on until the end of the game.
Being able to move first is a tiny advantage which gives the white player an opportunity
to attack right away.

BRIEF HISTORY OF DARTS N.
6- Private
 One
Many interesting stories exist with regard to darts. 1-FLAG
such story was about a game which originated in 1844
called "Puff and Dart". It seems that while some people were throwing the darts others tried to start a new type of
game by using a blowpipe to blow the dart into the board. Apparently the game was quickly banned because a
London dart blower made the mistake of sucking the blowpipe instead of blowing. The dart went into his
digestive system,IS FOR

first metal barrel.
Much is also speculated about the distance from where the darts were thrown, commonly known as the “oche”.
(“oche” is pronounced the same as “hockey without the “H”). Other words for "the oche" is the “Throw line” or
“Toe Line”. The throwing line is a line that a dart player stands behind when throwing his or her darts.
Basic Rules:
In a game of 501 the objective is for one player or a team to be the first to reach zero from starting total of
501. In simple terms, after three darts are thrown, the throwing player subtracts the total scored from his
current total until he reaches zero. In order to reach zero each player must finish by throwing a double i.e. if
player one has 36 remaining he must hit double 18 to win, while if player two has 45 remaining he must hit
single 5 first , and hit double 20 to win - or a another combination of scores provided the final dart scores on
a double.

For any dart landing in the "non-ringed" area of the dartboard you
score the number shown at the outside of that segment. As an
example, darts landing in the yellow shaded areas would score 13 and
