Equipment
Chess Pieces

These chess pieces are moveable objects.
-When a player changes one piece's position,
this movement is known as "making a
move."
-A set of chess pieces come in 32 units of
light colored (16 pieces referred to as
white) and dark colored (16 pieces
referred to as black) chessmen.
Chess Board
The game is played on a specific game
board with chess pieces, known as the
chessboard. The board has a square
circumference with alternating box
patterns. The chessboard serves as an
essential key for playing the game.
Clock
A clock is used where players move in
turns. It consists of two clocks with
buttons which are used to stop one
clock and start the other. It is used to
keep track of the time that each player
takes during his/her turn.
Techniques
The Opening Phase
The stage which usually consists of the first 20 to 25 moves, wherein the player
develops their pieces in a way and setup a platform for the further moves.
The Middle Game
It is the developed phase of the game.
The Endgame
It is the stage where nearly all the pieces are gone, and the Kings begin to take an
active part in the fight to survive.
Playing Area
The game can be played anywhere that allows the players to
sit comfortably. However, the primary playing equipment
on which the game is played is the chessboard which is
constituted of 64 squares in an eight-by-eight grid.
Two types of colors are used to differentiate the blocks;
each of which is painted with a different color. The chess
pieces are placed on the blocks as per the place assigned to
them.
Officials
Arbiter
The officials in the game of chess are responsible for keeping a watch
over the match in the tournament to avoid cheating and conflict
between the players.
An arbiter is an official who is appointed by the FIDE in the official
chess tournaments. He is the one who keeps a check on the moves
and positions made by the players in the game.
They also keep a keen eye on the clocks of the players and must not
give biased decisions. Whenever an illegality is committed by a
player in the game, the arbiter is the one who is authorized to provide
penalties to the player whosoever has violated the rules and
regulations of the same.
Special Moves
Castling
-The only move in chess that allows a player to
move two pieces simultaneously—the king and
a rook.
-You can move your king two squares to the
side, grab the rook from the side you're castling
to, and place it over and next to the king.
Pawn promotion
-Probably the special move that most
beginners know exists, although there's usually
some confusion as to how it truly works. This
rule allows a pawn to become any piece (other
than a king or staying a pawn) when it gets to the
farthest rank from where it started (eighth for
White and first for Black).-
En passant
capture—especially when it happens
against them. This rule allows pawns on
the fifth rank for White and fourth rank
for Black to capture another pawn that
has just "passed it" in a single move.
