Hello Everyone,

Glad to announce my idea is now a reality as the first onboarding lecture for the chess players started today.

In today's first class, I covered what Hive is all about, The Hive frontend, Hive keys and gave a breakdown of the communities on Hive and how to write an introductory post. In this class we had about 12 players complete the 1 hour session.

To make the class fun, I gave tasks to the players and rewards to their newly created account. Tasks that included joining new communities and making comments on posts. 

Also a fun Chess tournament was done after the class on lichess.org. we had two international masters play alongside three female players. A total number of 11 players played the event after the class

1st prize - 32 Hive won by IM elect @tenny-trigah 
2nd Prize - 20 Hive won by @poseout87 
3rd Prize - 8 Hive won by @sirchessingstone 

We had females in the class so I added two female prizes 

1st - 12 Hive won by @amarachi-chess 
2nd - 8 Hive won by @madchess64

<br>

#### Big Progress

I was quite happy to see the players complete their tasks very fast and also their willingness to be part of something. I had @kintokris also known as Jon bellion Fan help me with teaching them how to make an introductory post. I believe from tomorrow, the players would start dropping them.


<br>

#### Gratitude & Thanks

I want to use this opportunity to thank @yabapmatt for his generous donation and support to this project. I also want to thank @stayoutoftherz for taking his time to create accounts for over 12 players. And finally a big thank you to @eddiespino for delegating RC to the newly onboarded players. 

I’m grateful for the support I have received and I hope our community, the chess community gets stronger and stronger and also I hope this players find Hive enjoyable and interesting as I do.

<br>

### The Initiative Continues 

The African chess invitationals is still in the cards as top players all over Africa already received invitations to play and get rewarded in Hive. The tournament even yet to begin as brought a lot of awareness and publicity which is one the reasons why the onboarding chess players has started.

I’d continue to drop updates and from tomorrow the the players would start dropping their introduction posts in the community.
