5 Cara Untuk Perbaiki Permainan Catur Anda

1) Main Catur Sebanyak Mungkin

Bukan setakat bermain dengan kawan-kawan atau ahli keluarga sahaja, tetapi juga perlu kerap sertai pertandingan catur. Dengan bermain lebih banyak chess game atau sertai banyak pertandingan catur akan memberi lebih banyak pengalaman dan memberi ruang untuk mempraktikkan apa yang telah dipelajari melalui buku-buku, perisian atau jurulatih peribadi. Perlu diingat permainan yang lebih panjang adalah terlebih baik tetapi permainan "blitz" juga perlu untuk improve dalam bukamainan (opening). 

2) Pelajari Game Expert atau Masters 

Dengan mempelajari dan memahami permainan-permainan Experts seperti Paul Morphy, Capablanca, Kasparov, Karpov dan sebagainya boleh membantu perbaiki permainan catur anda. Justeru itu download kompilasi permainan-permainan mereka dan study thouroughly. 

3)  Review atau Semak Game Sendiri

Selain pelajari permainan-permainan chess experts, permainan-permainan sendiri perlu juga di kaji, semak dan review. Justeru itu, ketika menyertai pertandingan-pertandingan catur rekodlah game anda walaupun bermain permainan rapid. Key in permainan-permainan yang telah direkod tersebut ke dalam perisian chess yang boleh dimuat turun dari internet seperti Chess Base Light. Dengan sentiasa review game sendiri bersama pemain-pemain yang lebih kuat, anda boleh mempelajari di mana kesilapan dan boleh perbaiki di pertandingan berikutnya.

4) Taktik, Taktik, Taktik

Mempelajari taktik sangat penting dalam permainan catur. Taktik merupakan salah satu keperluan dalam permainan ini. Carilah buku-buku berkenaan taktik catur atau artikel-artikel di internet supaya anda boleh menjadi pemain catur yang lebih baik.

5) Private Chess Lessons

Memang tidak dapat dinafikan jika anda ingin menjadi seorang pemain catur yang berjaya, anda perlukan seorang guru atau jurulatih catur.  Belajar sendiri memang tidak memadai. Jadi carilah seorang chess coach yang boleh membantu anda perbaiki permainan.

SKBJians at Encik Ismail Ahmad's MBR Chess Simultaneous

Below are several pictures of the Chess Simul event held at Markas Briged Tengah, Cheras on 26th March 2009. A number of SKBJ chess players were among the 120 opponents of Encik Ismail Ahmad, the former World Police Chess Champion. It is a great honour for SKBJ chess players to be invited and part of a Malaysian Book of Record feat.

It is even better when Irfan Rendrawan, the 2009 PPD Petaling Pedana L12 first runner-up, won while few others (Aminur, Affan, Ihsan & Aina Farzana) drew.

Below are the medals, awards and photo gallery of Encik Ismail Ahmad in chess. His achievements and success in chess shall be followed and role model for all SKBJians especially and Malaysian kids generally. He started quite late in chess. His determination, discipline, dedication, passion, effort, patience and sacrifice has made him what he is today in chess. 

Hopefully all SKBJians especially its chess players will be motivated to succeed in chess seeing below pictures.

The Selangor team won 4 Golds, 2 Silvers and 2 Bronzes.

Therefore, SKBJ students can excel in anything if great efforts and hardwork been made. Hopefully, this record and feat with many others will be a great motivation for all SKBJians to excel and succeed in any curriculum, tournament, contest and competition. 

For chess, hopefully, the success will continue every year and more SKBJians come forward to represent the state in the MSSM. Continue learning and practising chess and participate in as many as chess tournaments as possible. SKBJ teachers and parents can work together to ensure such excellence and success to continue. Many have acknowledge about SKBJ like SK Jenjarom being a strong horsepower in MSS chess tournament. So, SKBJ Chess Club needs to keep and maintain this in many years to come. 

THANK YOU! to every one who contributes and makes efforts to the success and feats achieved by the SKBJ Chess Club.
