Throughout the year, MAHE BLR has been a beacon for fostering chess talent and building a vibrant community among its first-year students. Beginning with the inaugural event, the 1st MAHE BLR set the stage by showcasing the best talents in chess among freshmen, laying a foundation for what was to come. Following its success, the 2nd MAHE BLR event in 2023 surpassed expectations with an impressive turnout from the incoming batch, further igniting a passion for chess among freshers. Alongside these flagship tournaments, the year-long series of tournaments featuring blitz, bullet, and rapid games provided continuous engagement and opportunities for students to hone their skills. Beyond traditional competitions, innovative events like the Treasure Hunt brought an element of fun and excitement, inviting participants of all skill levels to explore chess-related challenges with the promise of enticing rewards. Similarly, the unique concept of Dil Aur Dimaag transformed chess into a platform for social interaction, drawing in a diverse crowd and amplifying the spirit of camaraderie within the chess community. Collectively, these events have not only enriched the chess experience for participants but have also solidified MAHE BLR's reputation for fostering a dynamic and inclusive chess culture.
