OUR STORY
Established on
Waridi Chess Club was founded with a simple yet profound vision: to bring the transformative power of chess to our community and beyond. Our journey began with a shared passion for the game and a deep-seated belief in its ability to enrich lives, foster critical thinking, and build connections across diverse backgrounds.
Driven by this vision, a group of dedicated chess enthusiasts came together to establish Waridi Chess Club, named after the Swahili word for “rose.” Like a rose, we believe that chess has the potential to bloom and flourish, bringing beauty, joy, and growth to all who embrace it.
