Shreya Jauhari, 10, from the Heath and a pupil at Howell’s Junior School, Llandaff, has won best Welsh Player in her age group in the U.K. Land Chess Challenge tournament which was held on 19 April in Swansea. There were around ninety competitors in the competition. As a result of this, she has qualified for the British final of the Land Chess Challenge which will be held in Sheffield in July.

Shreya attends the Chess Club in Howell’s Junior School which started last September, but she had played the game a little before starting at the club.

She was delighted with her win and commented, “I felt quite happy and proud when I won”.
