Go is an ancient board game that originated in China over 2500 years ago. Go is also known as igo in Japanese, wéiqí in Chinese and baduk in Korean. The game is played by 2 players, alternating turns by placing stones on a Go board. The game of Go while have very few and simple rules, is a vastly complex and strategic game. While Chess is a solved problem, computer opponents beating the top players in the world – a computer opponent in Go can only muster the level of an intermediate amateur player.

The current incarnation of the Go club was started during the year 2005, and has continued to play Go since then. Members of the club generally strive to improve themselves in the game, learning about sound strategy and concepts of the game.
