The “Face to Face Chess Tournament” organized by Dr. Uğur YİĞİT, one of the lecturers of our university, for our students took place on 12 December 2022 in the mind games section of Istanbul Medeniyet University Ziraat Bank Library.
Unlike the previous chess tournaments organized at our university, the event was led by a referee working under the Turkish Chess Federation. The tournament aimed to make students love this sport and contribute to strengthening their mental activities along with other elements of a healthy lifestyle. The chess activity, which supports mental health and is beneficial against diseases such as Alzheimer’s, also provided our students with a pleasant time.
