Members of the Gambia National Draughts Association headed by its President Momodou Lamin Dibba on Tuesday August 4th 2009 paid a courtesy call on the National Sports Council, the body charged with overseeing the affairs of sports in the country, to introduce Gambian champion Sheikh Njie.

It could be recalled that Sheikh Njie was on Wednesday 22nd July 2009 confirmed as the Gambia’s only representative in the forth-coming draughts world cup to be staged by Brazil in September after finishing sixth out of twelve draughts participants drawn from twelve different countries that took part in the African Draughts confederation and the Draughts world cup qualifiers, at the Paradise Suites Hotel.
