31/08/2026

๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ THIS IS HOW CHAMPIONS ARE MADE โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

This is our THINOKI. ๐Ÿ’œ
Born in 2020.
Just 6 years old.
But already showing the heart of a champion. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

For Thinoki, this vacation wasnโ€™t just about holidays. ๐Ÿ’œ

It was about chess. โ™Ÿ๏ธ
Almost every weekend, she travelled to tournaments, sat at the board, faced new opponents, accepted new challenges and gave her very best.

Some games were difficult.
Some positions were confusing.
Some opponents were older.
Some moments tested her.

But she kept coming back. ๐Ÿ’œ

Again. And again. And again. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

And in just ONE MONTH, this little girl achieved something truly special. ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ† A MONTH FULL OF CHAMPIONSHIPS ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ’œ

โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ NEGOMBO ZONAL CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP โ€“ GDCA
๐Ÿ† Under 7 Girls โ€“ CHAMPION

She is only 6, but she stepped into the Under-7 category and became the Girlsโ€™ Champion! ๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ

โธป

โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ DNL CHESS MONTHLY TOURNAMENT
๐Ÿ† Under 7 Open โ€“ CHAMPION

Playing in our own club tournament, she once again showed her fighting spirit and finished as the Under-7 Open Champion. ๐Ÿ’œ

โธป

โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ QUEENSTAR INDIVIDUAL CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP
๐Ÿ† Under 6 โ€“ CHAMPION

Another tournament.
Another challenge.
Another championship. ๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ

โธป

โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ QUEENSTAR INTERNATIONAL CHESS CHAMPIONSHIP

๐Ÿ† Rapid โ€“ Equal Champion
๐Ÿ† Classical โ€“ Equal Champion on Points
โžก๏ธ 2nd Runner-Up on Tie-Break

Even when the final ranking depends on tie-breaks, the important fact remains โ€” she finished equal on points with the champion. ๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ

โธป

โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ JAPURA CHESS BATTLE

๐Ÿ† CHAMPION

And this one makes us especially proud.

Thinoki didnโ€™t stay inside her comfort zone.
She stepped up and played in an older age category, taking on players older than her.

And she didnโ€™t just participateโ€ฆ

SHE BECAME THE CHAMPION. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ†โ™Ÿ๏ธ

โธป

๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ BUT THE REAL ACHIEVEMENT ISNโ€™T THE TROPHIES โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

The trophies tell us what she achieved.

But her journey tells us who she is becoming. ๐Ÿ’œ

A child who keeps showing up.
A child who isnโ€™t afraid of competition.
A child who is willing to play against older opponents.
A child who learns from every game.
A child who keeps trying.

That is what makes us proud. ๐Ÿ’œ

Because champions are not created on the day they lift a trophy.

They are created on the days when they lose a gameโ€ฆ
and choose to play again. ๐Ÿ’œ

They are created when they make a mistakeโ€ฆ
and choose to learn from it. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

They are created when they face a stronger opponentโ€ฆ
and choose not to be afraid. ๐Ÿ’œ

They are created when everyone else is restingโ€ฆ
and they choose to keep doing what they love. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

THEY KEEP DOING WHAT THEY LOVE UNTIL THEY GET IT RIGHT. ๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ

And Thinoki is showing us exactly that. ๐Ÿ’œ

At only 6 years old, she is already learning one of the greatest lessons chess can teach:

Keep going. ๐Ÿ’œ
Keep learning. โ™Ÿ๏ธ
Keep improving. ๐Ÿ’œ
Keep believing. โ™Ÿ๏ธ
Keep loving the game. ๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ TO THINOKI โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

We are so proud of you. ๐Ÿ’œ

Not because you won every tournament.

But because you kept coming back to the board. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Not because every game was easy.

But because you accepted the challenge. ๐Ÿ’œ

Not because you are already a champion.

But because you are developing the habits of one. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Keep that smile. ๐Ÿ’œ
Keep that fighting spirit. โ™Ÿ๏ธ
Keep that curiosity. ๐Ÿ’œ
Keep loving chess. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Your trophies may fill a shelf one day, but the confidence, discipline and resilience you build along the way will stay with you forever. ๐Ÿ’œ

๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ™ A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU TO HER PARENTS ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’œ

Every beautiful achievement has a story behind it.

And behind Thinokiโ€™s story are her parents. ๐Ÿ’œ

Every weekend tournament means travelling.
Every tournament means time and preparation.
Every game means encouragement.
Every achievement comes with countless little sacrifices that nobody sees. ๐Ÿ’œ

They keep taking her to tournaments.
They keep supporting her passion.
They keep encouraging her after every game.
They keep giving her the opportunity to experience, compete and grow. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Thank you for believing in her. ๐Ÿ’œ
Thank you for supporting her dreams. ๐Ÿ’œ
Thank you for giving her the freedom to love the game. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

This journey is not only Thinokiโ€™s.

It is a journey shared with her family. ๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ

๐Ÿ’œโ™Ÿ๏ธ ONE MONTH. SO MANY TOURNAMENTS. SO MANY LESSONS. SO MANY MEMORIES. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Keep going, Thinoki. ๐Ÿ’œ
The chessboard is waiting for you. โ™Ÿ๏ธ๐Ÿ’œ

Most of our players gained FIDE rating points, and some of them successfully opened their FIDE ratings for the very first time. ๐Ÿ“ˆโ™Ÿ๏ธ

For a young chess club, these moments mean so much.

Because behind every rating point is a child who worked hard.
Behind every medal is countless hours of practice.
Behind every tournament result is a coach, a parent and a player who believed in the journey.

In just 8 years, we have watched our students grow from their first chess lessons to tournament champions, rated players and future representatives of Sri Lankan chess.
