Sina Jedara Docena, WFM Rulp Ylem Jose, Cherry Ann Mejia, at sina WIMs Beverly Mendoza at Catherine Pereña ang kabilang sa women’s squad.

“They are all in good health at sa tingin ko they are also looking forward sa magandang laban sa Southeast Asian Games,” ani NCFP executive director GM Jayson Gonzales.

Noong 2003 ay sumulong ang mga chess pla­yers ng kabuuang 3 golds at 3 bronzes sa Vietnam SEA Games at may 4 silvers at 2 bronzes naman sa Manila SEA Games no­ong 2005.

Hindi naisama ang chess sa calendar of events sa 2007 at 2009 edition ng biennial event sa Thailand at Laos, ayon sa pagkakasunod.
