Kitale in Trans Nzoia County will be hosting the 2025 Kenya National Youth and cadets Chess Championships next month.
Chess Kenya settled on Kitale for the August 1st to 5th in promoting national awareness and chess development for Trans Nzoia County to be selected to host this event.
“Following a thorough inspection of several potential venues, Kitale National Polytechnic was selected as the most suitable location to host this prestigious event. The institution offers ample space, modern facilities, and a secure environment, making it well-equipped to accommodate the large number of participants expected from across the country,” the statement read.
Chess Kenya also added that the institution’s administration has also expressed strong support for co-curricular activities, including chess, aligning perfectly with the goals of the federation, hence their acceptability.
