One reason was because the club was a "Chess and Games" club and most kids were more interested in playing with the board games. He beat the older kids (grade 5 and up) for a few games and that made him "popular" suddenly in the cafeteria. LOL. The older boys will call out to him when they see him around. He noticed that some kids played with their king and queen on the wrong colour (!) and when he made some moves, he had to explain that they were legitimate moves. He was quite frustrated sometimes.The time was quite short (35mins) so they couldn't finish the game all the time. Other times, his opponent may lose interest and thus move the pieces intending to lose, so as to end the game early. It was just not fun for him anymore. I think he moved on to Math....
