At Premier Chess Academy (PCA), our vision is to transform kids into the world of chess & support them along the transition. Each and every kid at PCA deserves a special appreciation but we have shortlisted (selection criteria below) the students. Friendly advise, “for student’s those who didn’t make it through – you will make it one day and for those who are the stars of the month – continue the practice as your bar goes up”.
Here we go to recognize the stars of the month (March 2023) at Premier Chess Academy, Middle East!
1. Jihan Rajan Pandya
” Jihan is a 1st Grader and living in Kuwait. He was introduced to chess 6 months ago when his father bought a Chess board, which was originally intended for his elder sister. Upon spotting the interest he showed towards Chess, his father started to teach him. The amount of time that he spent on Chess and his passion towards the game was a clear indication that he required a professional coach. He showed great enthusiasm for Chess and would visualize a Chess board using floor tiles and show positions of pieces to tell moves to capture or checkmate. Other than Chess, Jihan enjoys swimming as well as playing and watching football. He loves Chess puzzles; give him a Chess puzzle and it will be solved. When asked about his future plans for Chess Jihan would proudly talk about being an international level Chess player. Appreciating Coach Mr. Shriram Chakradeo and PCA (Premier Chess Academy) for excellent guidance, coaching and encouragement.”
