The workshop began at 7:00 am and continued for 2 hours each day. The athletes received instructions regarding the basic tenets of chess boxing, kickboxing, and the complexity of playing chess.

Mr. Asutosh Kumar Jha, who is also an alumnus of the college, and Miss. Khushi Lakra led the workshop in the presence of the college’s Sports in-charge. The participants were shown the conventional boxing position and were trained in fundamental boxing skills on the first day. The mentors focused their concentrated gaze on each one of the participants with meticulous attention. Lastly, the professionals demonstrated a handful of methodologies to the participants, which proved to be of great assistance. On the second day, the emphasis was put on chess boxing training. The coaches necessitated the participants to practice punching on the pads in addition to engaging in playing chess.
