Finishing Runners-Up in the Individual event and 3rd in the Team Event(S.K.TTDI 1) in the just concluded Bangsar Zone-MSSWP Chess Competition, hAnA will be representing Bangsar Zone in the MSSWP State Finals next week at S.K.Desa Tun Hussein Onn...a school located within the army camp (same venue as per last year!).

INDIVIDUAL Performance
------------------------------
As a comparison, last year she was placed 5th in the zone's Girls U-10 event.
Hence, my simplistic conclusion is that she'd either improved her game and/or her opponents had stagnated!

2012: 5th. Girls U-10
2013: 2nd, Girls U-12.

Including this week's participation in Bangsar Zone chess(5 days), NAG 2013(1 day) and add that to next week's event.......4 or 5 days ( I think!)
All in she would have missed at least 2 weeks of classes.

As further comparison, last year in the State Finals she'd finished 4th.
This year, ???. All the Best hAnA.

Comparison Note:
