Chess Kenya: Intermedia tournament set to be incorporated into federation calendar

Sports journalists in the country now have an opportunity to play the game of chess competitively, thanks to a series of media workshops Chess Kenya (CK) is rolling out to equip scribes with knowledge of the sport.

Speaking during the Sports Journalists Association of Kenya (SJAK)/ CK Media Workshop, CK Secretary General John Mukabi remarked that there is a great correlation between chess and journalism as both crafts require analytical skills, strategic planning, and ability to adapt to the ever changing circumstances hence the need for a designated chess championship for the scribes.
