2025 WA Women's and Girls' State Chess Championships The 2025 WA Women's State Chess Champion was decided at the 2025 State Chess Championships. Congratulations to: WFM Kathryn Hardegen - 2025 WA Women's State Chess Champion. The 2025 WA Girls' Junior Chess Champion was to be decided at the 2025 WA Junior Chess Championships (7 to 10 July) but no Best Girl titles were awarded in the Under 14, Under 16, or Under 18 sections, as none of the girls in these categories met the minimum requirement - winning at least half of the available points (4.5 out of 9) - to qualify for a title or individual prize. Consequently, no 2025 State Girl Champion title was awarded.
