At just 6 years old, this young chess player is already learning to calculate moves, anticipate possibilities, and think strategically on the board.

Every move tells a story of curiosity, focus, and growing potential.

DESERVE IPA-TARPAULIN!

Hindi lahat ng pangalan, basta-basta inilalagay sa tarpaulin. Ito ay bunga ng sipag, tiyaga, disiplina, at dedikasyon.

Pinaghirapan. Pinatunayan. Karapat-dapat ipagmalaki!

Saludo sa mga atletang patuloy na nagbibigay ng karangalan at inspirasyon.

BATANG PINOY CHESS CAMARINES NORTE

I am truly grateful and happy to see my players representing Quezon Province earn the opportunity to compete on the Batang Pinoy stage in Bacolod City! This is more than just a competition; it is a chance for them to grow, gain experience, build confidence, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

To my Quezon Province players, treasure this moment. Play with courage, compete with heart, learn from every game, and always remember that representing your province is already an honor. May this be the beginning of greater opportunities and achievements in your chess journey.

Praying for the Lord’s wisdom, guidance, strength, and protection over each of you throughout this journey. May you play not only to win but also to glorify His name.
