Yes... Chess is a mind sport
*according to wiki....
Sport is an activity that is
governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in
competitively. Sports commonly refer to activities where the physical capabilities of the competitor are the sole or primary determinant of the outcome (winning or losing), but the term is also used to include activities such as
mind sports (a common name for some card games and board games
with little to no element of chance) and motor sports where mental acuity or equipment quality are major factors.
Well i do love all sports, but baseball with all respect :S, i havent tried it competitively tho, maybe thats why.
And Chess is simply beautiful and it is meant for very "strong heads" players
The most complete sport besides table tennis (you can't image how demanding - mentally & phisically at high lvl - this sport is)
6 Rounds of Chess
5 Rounds of Boxing
Decision by Checkmate or Knockout
Chessboxing
