February 26, 2015- The National Community Foundation hosted the first Independence Chess Tournament at Castries City Hall, which comprised Junior and Senior divisions. The Boys Training Centre was represented by two wards in Junior and Senior divisions. At the end of the tournament, the wards received tremendous support and encouragement for their participation, especially their level of skill.
