Thank you for your update bahkana.

Today, we presented go during a fair. Not to attract club members, only to show it, get people incl. youngsters interested (the game is not very well known over here). Only some people take the time to learn the very basics, but there were also some children which tried their first game. I always find it fun and interesting to see that the stones are so inviting that they immediately want to play. And some were surprisingly good for a first game. Just to show the joy this game brings.

I remember reading somewhere, someone wrote a paper on the educational benefits of the game of go. Maybe someone else will remember where it is and provide a link.

Maybe you meant this?

This scientific article shows that children with ADHD show significant brain changes and improvements if they play go over some time.
