Baroda kids to represent India at World Mind Sports Championship
Vadodara: Four students from Baroda will represent India at the prestigious World Mind Sports Championship, scheduled to be held in Dubai from May 27 to 29.
Selected through rigorous elimination rounds at the district, state, and national levels, the young prodigies will compete in a range of events designed to test their mental prowess.
The participants include Nishka Romil Patel, a Grade 6 student at Navrachana International School; Avyaan Mohan, a Grade 2 student of Sardar Patel School; Vivaan Nimesh Patel, a Grade 5 student from Tejas School; and Rajvi Desai, a Grade 5 student of Nalanda International School.
Competing in the age group of six to eleven years, the students will showcase their skills in various mental disciplines including Rubik's Cube, mental calculations, Sudoku, Chess, and Tangram — demonstrating speed, accuracy, memory, and strategic thinking.
"The selection of these students is a testament to their dedication, rigorous training, and outstanding mental agility. It is a moment of pride not just for us, but for the entire city," said Pinal Shah, who mentored the students.
"These students have shown what focused preparation and mental discipline can achieve," she added.
