De Villiers takes April Rapid


We host monthly rapid Tournaments and congratulations to Charles De Villiers for lifting the April Rapid open with a clear 7/7  ahead of Daud Amin and Bryan Aguire who were both tied at 6 points.
Rules of the tournament meant Amini and Bryan had to do a do or die speed chess game to decide clear 2nd. In dramtic fashion infront of a television crew this was won by Daud Amini who faces Charles De Villiers in our first ever Chess Reality show pilot.


TV Show
Concurrent with the tournaments we have been flat out in the studio working on the television show and hopefully by the end of this week we will be able to share with you a finished product of this effort.

Imagine the impact we can make in introducing more people to chess. The benefits  of chess to academic performance and general positive impact to the intellect have long been demonstrated and we feel its upon us to make this tool available to more people. 

This is something we have been passionate about here at the lounge and we have pushed for it in the different activities of our organisation and we feel we are at a watershed of that change with what we are about to accomplish.
