On Monday, 14 December 2009, Charles Sidney Eichab became the Namibian Chess Champion for 2009 for a third time.
The Namibia National Chess Championship was held at the Centaurus Secondary School from 9 December to 14 December 2009. Eichab scored 6/7 points after 4 wins and 2 draws.
In Second place was Candidate Master, Otto Zandell Nakapunda who also scored 6/7 but lost against Eichab in their individual encounter and was place in second position due to his lesser progressive score.
