I had the honour of officiating at the African Schools Individual U-17 Chess Championship 2025 as the Deputy Chief Arbiter. Serving alongside an exceptional A Team at this continental championship was a significant professional milestone.

It is every coach's desire and dream to nurture Champions! All the 3 have been National Youth Chess Champions several times and now dominating the University level is contributed by their dedication to practice, consistency despite everything and God's favour.

Rocky was the 2024 University Chess Champion & he defended his Title. His win showcased talent and strength 💪 In the Ladies Section, the Final match to decide the Winner were both my students. Well done to Vivian Muthoni for becoming 1st Runners Up that proves strength. 🥳

Proud Coach 🥳 Having 2 of my students win the 2025 Kenya Colleges & Universities Chess Championship is a great achievement!  Mercy Ingado⁩ & Rocky Muchiri are the 2025 Kenya National University Chess Champion- Ladies & Open categories respectively.
