Diski Nine9 joins the global community in observing Mental Health Awareness Month. In the world of sports, we often focus on physical strength, but our mental well-being is the foundation of everything we do.

Today marked the official launch of our Community Chess Programme in Emndeni South, Soweto.

Our young participants were introduced to the basics of chess, including the board setup, pieces, and how each piece moves. The session focused on building foundational knowledge, confidence, and excitement for the game.

The programme will run on scheduled Saturdays, providing a safe and stimulating environment where children can develop critical thinking, discipline, and problem-solving skills using chess.

We look forward to growing this initiative and nurturing young minds through chess.
