“Chess has all the attributes of a sport, including a) a competitive struggle of high intensity for a sustained period of time; b) like any sport, chess requires top physical fitness, as the mental concentration and tension of tournament games are physically draining; c) in large tournaments, players are required to engage in intense struggle for up to 7 hours a day, sometimes 3-5 days in a row; d) there are rules, trained arbiters to oversee games, rating systems, and a behaviour code.”
