The Chess Team is delighted to announce that five of the very best chess players in our school have managed to score excellent results in the Hong Kong Junior Rapid Inter-School Chess Championships 2025, which was organised by the Hong Kong Chess Federation.

The team members are:

J. Lo (F.4)
J. Wu (F.5)
As for individual prizes, huge congratulations to K. Fan (F.3) and J. Lo (F.4) for achieving 3rd and 5th place respectively.
Thanks to the persistent efforts and determined dedication of our team members, a new page of history for the chess team is made, as the first victory for chess in inter-school tournaments is forever etched into the hearts of fellow teammates. While the players were off to a rough start in the early rounds of the tournament, they embodied the Lasallian Spirit of “Never Say Die”, fighting back with perseverance until triumph was celebrated in the last round. It is believed that these five members will continue to stand as role models for upcoming chess prodigies and talents.
