picture below an old pal- OCHUKO!! at the event, (MY FORMER FISH NOW A MASTER)

THE 2008 NIGERIA OLYMPIAD TRIALS: ZONE 2, UNITED STATES: ROUND 1

EXPRESS REPORT: Ten chess players are competing in the zone 2 trials with 4 officials working to see that the best chess player emerge in this 5 round Swiss tournament. The chessplayers present in Houston for the event are Toyin Gbenle, Kenneth Odeh, Yomi Odutola, NM George Umezinwa, I'm Oladapo Adu, Ayo Oguntuase, Okechukwu Iwu, Sylvester Smarty, Ayokunle Aladeselu and Ola Osanyinjobi. Four of the expected players could not make it due to unforeseeable circumstances.

The Chief Tournament Director is Franc Guadalupe - US Tournament director. Franc is an experience arbiter who has officiated in many US tournaments including the US Opens. He is assisted by Quayle Johnson, a delegate member of the US Chess Federation and a member of the Houston Chess Club. Coordinating the event are Dr Jide Falana and Adekunle Elegbede. The tournament is going to be US Chess Federation and World Chess Federation (FIDE) rated.

So far, this Olympiad trial has lived up to its expectations. The highlight of the first round was the game between the 1992 Olympiad veteran Kenneth Odeh and George Umezinwa, a past winner of the US World Opens. George won this game even though Kenneth put on tremendous pressure on George throughout the game. Another interesting game was between Dr Okechuhwu Iwu and Aladeselu Ayokunle. This was very explosive and nerve wrecking to say the least.

Detail analysis of the games is underway. You can also see them on the Chess drum.

2008 OLYMPIAD TRIALS REPORT AND PICTURES : ZONE 3 - NIGERIA

"That Nigeria chess players in 3 Continents - Africa, Europe and the United States are taking part in an Olympiad selection process of this magnitude is very remarkable. This fact alone is what makes everyone involve in the process a winner and not only those who will eventually qualify" .

Chess Olympiad Trial: Adegboyega, Jeje Lead others to Final Stage

By Femi Solaja

After four days of brilliant chess display, 12 players (Male and Female) have qualified for the final stage of the World Chess Olympiad trial put together by the Nigeria Chess Federation (NCF) which was rounded up at the National Stadium, Lagos yesterday.

Adebayo Adegboyega, a veteran of several World Chess Olympiad, showed shade of genus in the middle games as he topped 29 others with 5.5 points out of seven games Swiss-round event in the male section out of which six players qualified for the final stage of the trial.

The other five qualifiers in the category are: Benjamin Omorere also with 5.5 points, Kolade Onabogun (5points), Ajibola Olanrewaju, Charles Campbell and Bomo Kigigha all with five points respectively.

In the final crucial game veteran Campbell exploited his better prowess in Nimzo Indian Defence (b6) on move four over youthful John Fawole who failed to keep the tempo in white colour and a dubious h4 move on 48 gave his opponent's light Bishop a wide control of the board and at the brink of time forfeit cause an exchange of Queens but when the smoke was cleared, the young prodigy was a pawn down and surrendered on move 73.

In the female section, the trio of Elizabeth Coker, Tolu Jeje and Uwa Obasi led the final qualification with five points each while Modupeola Adesanya, Folusayo Togun and veteran Rachael-Edward Dappa all picked the remaining slots for a chance in the final Olympiad trial which will come up next month from 13th-17th at the SWAN Secretariat at the National Stadium, Lagos.

The final trial will be a round robin and will produce three players from each category while the two from Nigeria players(male team) in Diaspora will make up the remaining two to complete the five players that will represent the country at the World Chess Olympiad in Dresden Germany in November.

Footnote:1 female player will also emerge from Diaspora to join the female team.

Zone 1: Europe: Date for the trial to be announced soon.
Zone 2: United States: Trial date is August 22nd-25th,2008 in Houston,Texas

PLEASE NOTE: Its no longer 4,2 2 its now 3,1 1.
3 Male chess players from Nigeria, 1 from Europe and 1 from the United States.

@ post
    looking at this, i try to imagine  game of chess with no queen, i think it wont be complete, there fore the world without women wont be complete,  FURTHER IMAGINATION IS IF WOMEN don't EXIST  THE LORD GOD WOULD HAVE PROVIDED ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE/ and perhaps avoid tha Eve character who put us all into this mess , Adam was doing pretty well far away from the forbidden fruit before his Rib got missing , an event leading to the EVE-olution of Miss Eve (who quicky attracted professor Luci's the snake's/devil WHO HAD NO BALLS TO TEMPT ADAM INITIALLY)  LONG AND SHORT IS IF THE LORD DIDNT MAKE WOMEN HE WOULD HAVE CREATED AN ALTERNATIVE AND WE WONT MISS THEM SINCE THEY WOULDNT HAVE EVER EXISTED!
