The key to chess improvement? Stuff!

Chase Cunningham, 14, will be heading off to Ottawa on the May long weekend for his second national youth chess competition and he will be the only Albertan his age in attendance....

Cunningham said it wasn't difficult to learn how to play chess, although he still reads up on it to keep his game sharp.

"Once you learn the moves it’s easy," he said. "You read books (on chess) and stuff."
