CONGRATULATIONS to WFM Polina Karelina of Bahamas Chess Federation’s Women Olympiad Team who has defeated opponents on Board 1 from Bhutan, Maldives and Jersey so far at the 46th FIDE Chess Olympiad in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. 

For many years, @polinakarelinachess has inspired young Bahamian chess players to achieve greatness and she continues with that today! This makes her 4th time representing the country at this prestigious tournament (also in Georgia, India and Hungary) as well as countless other international tournaments where she has excelled.
Join us in celebrating WFM Karelina as she continues to represent our Nation well on the world stage! 

We continue to wish WFM Polina Karelina and the full team well as they press on up to Round 11. We are truly proud of this team of 5 men and 5 women plus their coaches and supporters for their performance and efforts thus far. Continue to make The Bahamas proud!
