The 17 year old Zambian chess talent Kennedy Shane has taken his game to a new level this summer. His bronze medal at the African Youth Chess Championships was the last decisive result that he needed to fulfill the conditions for the FIDE Master Title. This is a fantastic achievement and a testament to Shaneβs dedication, passion, hard work, and continued growth in chess. βοΈπͺ
We are especially proud to highlight Kennedy as an affiliate of our Chess 2 Change program, a program committed to using chess as a vehicle for opportunity, development, and positive change. And to be honest, we did see it coming already in 2017π…

From the Business Meets Chess & Kids community to the wider chess world β congratulations, FM Kennedy Shane!π Your journey is an inspiration, and we look forward to seeing what comes next! πβοΈ
