That's not true at all. You want to write about something that reflects who you are and why you will be an asset to have in the school's student body.
I can think of several potential essays that might be interesting to write about your passion for Chinese checkers:
* How you have used the lessons learned in Chinese checkers in other areas of your life?
* The challenge of founding and organizing the Chinese Checkers club -- How you got others interested and involved in it, what it took to start the club, how the club has grown under your leadership.
I'll bet that the admissions committees do not get a lot of essays relating to Chinese checkers enthusiasts. A strong essay that incorporates this passion of yours could really stand out. That being said, your essay needs to be about more than that you just play Chinese checkers a lot.
Good luck.
