'a chess match for example?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'match for example?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'match' could be 'meet' (synonyms) and 'meet' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'boarding' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
