Fatima Yewande Obi

Youth chess coach and mentor

  • 🇳🇬 Gwagwalada, Abuja FCT, Nigeria
  • Victory Athletic Club
  • 1982 to 1997
  • English
I coached chess at Victory Athletic Club from 1982 to 1997. Most of my players were between 12 and 16, and a lot of them turned into friends for life. Winning was never the point, though I won't pretend I didn't enjoy it. I played music while people worked.

More about Fatima

Some of my former players now coach their own teams, which is the best thank-you I could ask for.

What gifts mean to Fatima: I'll put any gifts toward a small fund so no child misses a match because of money.
