Education / New Fountain Secondary School Chess Tournament 1.0 March 26th 2024. by J5mi: 12:12am On Mar 30 |
NEW FOUNTAIN SECONDARY SCHOOL CHESS TOURNAMENT 1.0 March 26th 2024. New Fountain Secondary School Chess Tournament 1.0. It was a time of fun and mind exercise for the pupils of New Fountain Secondary School, Festac Access Road, Amuwo Odofin, Lagos State on Tuesday 26th March 2024..as they battle among one another in games of chess. Chess training started in New Fountain School in 2019, but this is the first major chess tournament they will be having in the school. The thrill and challenge connected with competing in chess tournaments filled up the atmosphere of the school. It was quite a sight to see the excitement and nervousness some of the pupils displayed after each pairing. To spice up the event and also to build the pupils' interest in competitive chess, Agoro Timileyin, the current Nigerian National Under-14 Chess Champion, was present at the event. Lydia Doherty, the head girl of the school assisted in taking the attendance, she also played in the tournament. It was a Swiss pairing of 5 rounds for every contestant, but unfortunately, only three rounds out of the 5 were completed. In all, the excitement and fun was great. At the end of the third round, Odinaka Samuel, Omonu Jonathan, Sean Igwilo and Okolo Destiny won all their three games, the four players finished with 3 points out of 3. Eleven (11) other players were on 2 points while the rest had between 1.5 to 0.5 points. Interestingly, everyone was a winner, for none of the pupils ended with zero point. It was so much fun. Pupils that arrived late at the venue after the pairing has been made were not allowed to partake in the event. After the tournament, Emmanuel Ndong, the head boy, decided to challenge the visiting National Under-14 Chess Champion, Agoro Timileyin. They played two games, both games ended in favour of Timileyin. Ndong Emmanuel shook hands with Timileyin, he has learnt a few new tricks from the champion. It was so much fun. Two teachers, Mr. Princewill and Mrs. Chidinma also engaged in a battle on the board. Mr. Princewill won with a beautiful back row knight checkmate. A big THANK YOU to Mrs. Amaka Ndidi Nwoko, the principal of the school and also Mrs. Oyenka, the teacher in charge of clubs. Another big SHOUT OUT TO Mrs. Oyenka Mr. Princewill Mrs. Serah Egeonu Mr. Joseph Agoro (King's Mind Chess) Master Timileyin Agoro - your presence and assistance at the event really made a lot of differences. THANK YOU. We give God all the glory for the success of the event.

Sports / Quickpen Deborah Shines Again At The National Friends Of Chess March2024 by J5mi: 7:19pm On Mar 27 |
QUICKPEN DEBORAH EBIMOBO-ERE shines again at the NATIONAL FRIENDS OF CHESS March 27th 2024. Blitz Session. DEBBYQUICK (the wonder girl) just arrived back in Nigeria after having a very successful outing at the African Individual Chess Championship (AICC) 2024, Accra, Ghana, where her unusual strength and capability was strongly felt when she put an end to the winning streak of the South Africa’s WIM Jesse February Nikki. It was in round 7 that Jesse met her fate, when she was paired against the wonder girl Deborah Quickpen. Quickpen dominated the game right from the beginning and eventually won. She also had a draw in her game with the Egyptian WGM Shahenda Wafa. (Details of her advent at the AICC is coming soon.) DEBORAH QUICKPEN FINISHED 3RD @ NATIONAL FRIENDS OF CHESS TOURNAMENT. March 27, 2024. Now, just today at the ongoing National Friends of Chess (NFOC) chess tournament holding at the Chevron Recreation Centre, Gbagada, Lagos. Deborah Quickpen has proven again that when chess is mentioned in this country Nigeria, she is one of the major forces to be reckon with. NFOC is not just women or female chess affairs as it has often been for her at chess tournaments. The NFOC Blitz tournament had many of the top male chess players in the country. Deborah finished in 3rd place. After dining with the lions and lionesses of chess in Nigeria. She really did well with the dishes that were served before her.😂 Some of the unbelievably strong players that fell victim of DEBBYQUICK with blitz rating of 1937 show of strength at the NFOC Blitz tournament include: Koko Obubele rated 2089, Okemakinde Toluwanimi rated 2062, Ogbogho Dennis rated 2018. Of worth of mention, is Deborah Quickpen's game against Edet Udeme Dominic rated 2133. Edet Dominic was ranking 1st at the tournament having won 7 games with a draw until he met Deborah Quickpen in game 9. She simply put an end to Edet Dominic winning streak. Don't ever win 7 games before meeting Quickpen in the month of March. 😂😂😂😂 ask Jesse February. 😢 But in game 10, Nigerian super- experienced IM Balogun Oluwafemi Daniel rated 2157 simply showed DebbyQuick how not to play chess blitz games. One will think, now that Deborah Quickpen, playing against the two highest rated players at the blitz tournament in her Game 10 and 11 respectively...... ...and with IM Balogun Oluwafemi Daniel rated 2157 show of strength over Deborah, ......that Game 11 will just be a walkover for the highest rated player at the tournament: IM Odion Aikhoje rated 2292. Then, the unexpected happened, 😯 Debby won IM Odion Aikhoje rated 2292.😯 Quickpen finished with 8.5 points out of 11. Edet Udeme Dominic ranked 1st at the tournament. He had a tie with IM Balogun Oluwafemi. They both finished with 9 /11 points, with Deborah Quickpen closely following behind them with 8.5/11 points. Edet Udeme Dominic lost only one game. His game against Deborah Quickpen. Deborah Quickpen fought really well, she ranked 3rd out of 103 players. This is one of the most beautiful outings for the 11 year old wonder girl DEBORAH QUICKPEN. Keep soaring higher and higher. 👍 Photo credit: Othims 1 Like 1 Share
