corner position
Angle-based placement
A corner position is a location at the intersection of two edges or boundaries.
In board games like chess or checkers, corner positions occupy the squares where the board's sides meet, often carrying strategic significance.
In sports, it may refer to a player's defensive assignment or physical placement: She played the corner position on defense.
The term applies wherever spatial arrangement matters—seating charts, retail displays, or tactical formations.
