Nihal Wins 2006 Mini Chess Tournament

18th March 2006 will be a day for Nihal to remember for the rest of his life, as he embarked upon his first chess tornament.

Nihal invited some of the best chess players in the community including his school chess team for a knockout chess tournament.

Eight players were selected based on their playing ability.

Players were drawn against each other at random for the first round, the winners of which decided the semi finalists.

The competition continued through the knockout stages to produce two exceptional finalists Nihal and Tom who had reached the final via their consecutive checkmate wins.

The final was eventually one by Nihal, however Tom gave Nihal no easy time winning it, as it was a tough challenge of two exceptional minds.

Great day Nihal, well done!
