2016 Tournament Results

Good day everyone!

We want to thank you for coming out to join our chess tournament! Special mention to Altus Bosch who's parents have driven all the way from Upington to represent Laerskool Oranje at our tournament. We appreciate your effort and I'm sure your son won't easily forget this experience!

We hope your children enjoyed their first tournament (for most). May they continue to learn, like and love the great game of chess!

I hope to see them again at the WP Schools Chess District Trials in February next year.
