Featured Event – Chess Olympiad International Tournament
Chess is a recreational and competitive game played between two players. The current form of the game emerged in Southern Europe during the second half of the 15th century after evolving from similar, much older games of Indian and Persian origin. Today, chess is one of the world's most popular games, played by millions of people worldwide in clubs, online, by correspondence, in tournaments and informally. A Chess Olympiad International Tournament was held on our shores during the past week.
Highlighted Event – National Duathlon / Canoe-Kayak
Duathlon is an athletic event that consists of a running leg, followed by a cycling leg and then another running leg in a format bearing some resemblance to triathlons. Recently on the Hal-Far Road, B’Bugia another Duathlon event was held with the MIA Olympic Magazine cameras giving due coverage to this event.
A Canoe/ Kayak race was held at Manoel Island on Sunday 30th March. Similar races draw great interest from the numerous enthusiasts of this sport which is fast emerging on our island.
