Delighted Champs Student Saanvi Solanki Wins Gold Medal in U9 Category at Chess Tournament
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra – 21st August, 2026: Delighted Champs is glad to felicitate yet another great achievement of our student, Saanvi Solanki, who is the student of our offline chess class. Saanvi earned the prestigious ‘Gold Medallist’ title single-handedly in the U9 category at the First Sagar Chess Academy Open & Age-Category Tournament.
The event was held at Sanjivani International School, Kharghar, Panvel, Maharashtra, on 9th August 2026.
A Proud Moment for Our Little Chess Player – Saanvi Solanki
Saanvi Solanki, who is already in possession of a gold medal in the U9 category, has participated in this tournament as well and has succeeded as the first-position holder in her category. It definitely is a great and memorable moment for Saanvi Solanki, as well as her family, her chess coaches, and the whole team of Delighted Champs. Apart from improving the skills of the young participants, such chess tournaments build up the confidence of dealing with various opponents.
Learning Chess Outside of Class
At Delighted Champs, we believe that the children should be given an opportunity to utilise the knowledge that they have gained. Chess is not only a game that involves moving the chessmen around the chessboard, but it also teaches the children how to plan, make decisions, solve problems, and concentrate. In chess tournaments, the children will have the opportunity to do all these in actual play situations. Tournaments also teach kids how to be patient, be good sportsmen, deal with difficulties, and learn from every match.
"Children's development should always happen in an environment that is positive and nurturing and where kids can have lots of experiences and opportunities. It makes us extremely proud of Saanvi's performance in the tournament, winning a gold medal in the U9 category. Saanvi, congratulations to you," said Shilpi Thakur, Director of Delighted Champs.
